The Greek Government and the representatives of the
international creditors begin tomorrow Tuesday the negotiations for a third
Greek rescue that the Executive Hellenic wait to conclude of here at August 18,
and that they will include a series of thorny topics. "The teams of
technicians will have tomorrow meetings in the Bank of Greece and, maybe, in
the General Secretary of Bills", he declared “Efe” a source of the
ministry of Finances that added that the bosses of the delegations will arrive
in Athens in next days, "to more to take the weekend."
The troika is also no longer such, now it is a quartet,
the technical squares formed by the European Commission (CE), the European
Central Bank (BCE), the European Mechanism of Stability (MEDE) and
International Monetary Fund (IMF) they are already in Athens and they have even
carried out already some conversations. Partly it is logical, if they go
increasing the rescues is it also logical that the rescuers increase (?). Today
he read an article in that the author wondered in the one enunciated why the
Greek rescues collapse more the Greek economy. My answer is clear, because the
rescues already weigh more than the Greek economy and they don't allow it to
leave to it floats.
The negotiation, according to sources of the ministry
of Finances, will be developed with several work groups working in parallel
that they will examine the financial situation, the problem of the pensions,
the labor relationships, the opening of the market of products and other
matters agreed in the summit of the Eurozone the past July 12. The evaluation
of the financial situation is one of the crucial points of this negotiation,
because the estimates on the impact of the lingering closing of banks about the
economy force to revise the forecasts of the economic growth.
This apart from being a loss of time, is a form of
minimizing the Greek government another time, because everybody knows that the
situation of Greece is chaotic it is not necessary to evaluate it. According to
data of the CE mentioned by the local means, after the imposition of the
capital controls four weeks ago is expected that the gross interior product registers this year a fall of at least 4%,
in front of a growth of 0,5% calculated initially. Under these conditions the
Government's objective for a primary surplus of 1% this year is unreachable,
while there are estimates that included a primary
deficit of 1%.
The primary surplus for 2015, 2016 and 2017 are part
of the negotiation. It is evident that to the moneylenders it interests them to
get it, because it would be the verification that there are recovery and some
year they will be been able to return part of the rescues, but I fear myself
that the reality that is very obstinate, will give to the fret with this
speculation. In 2018 the most probable thing is that Greece has eaten up the
third rescue and this requesting a room, if it is that the euro area continues
in foot, thing that I doubt then if the FDA finally goes up the interest of the
money it USA, all the Eurus will leave running to take refuge in the
Dollar.
The Greek Government's objective is at most late to
reach an agreement with the quartet up to August 18, to avoid a new loan bridge
that would allow him to pay its obligations with the BCE that conquer August
20, but it would also be tied to new prerequisites that would enlarge the fissure
in the parliamentary group of Syriza. The first two legal packages already
tripped with the rejection of more than a thirty of deputies of Syriza and the
Government got his approval in the alone Parliament thanks to the back of the
opposition.
To be able to reach an agreement, the Government
should make new painful commitments, as the revision of all the laws approved
"unilaterally" in the last six months, the premature jubilations and
the elimination from the discounts to the gasoil and of the tax on the reduced
rent that they have the farmers, absurd truth is that these measures are
illogical that he really takes them a political party as Syriza, in my opinion
although he says that if to everything, it cannot be that it completes it
unless it gives up to govern Greece. Which will the following step be?
