  • [01] Tsakalotos: No evidence IMF wants Greece to accept fourth bailout for debt relief

    It does not arise from any discussion with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) that debt relief would be granted to Greece only if the country accepted a fourth bailout, Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos said on Wednesday during his speech at the parliament's economic committee on the 2017 draft budget.

    "It is not obvious that the IMF wants another program in addition to the existing," he said, adding he disagrees with PASOK's former finance minister Nikos Christodoulakis on this issue.

    "The government does not have a success story to promote. Our view is we can restore development in a sovereign way, by incorporating social forces which the dominant elite has abandoned," he added.

    [02] Council of State to convene on TV licencing law on October 24 and 26

    The Council of State (CoS) plenum will meet on October 24 and 26 to discuss and decide on the constitutionality and legality of the government's TV licensing law in two closed-door sessions, the president of the court Nikolaos Sakellariou said on Wednesday, accïrding to sources.

    The sessions have been scheduled for 17:00. Next Monday, judges will hear from the case rapporteur, Giorgos Papageorgiou, who will complete his recommendation which started on Tuesday night but was interrupted.

    Papageorgiou argued in favour of the law which sidestepped the National Council for Radio and Television (NCRTV) in the granting of TV licenses. Other judges will then take their turn and develop their arguments on its constitutionality.
