Details
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Saturday, August 20, welcomed his country’s official withdrawal from the European Union’s external financial surveillance system – the so-called enhanced EU oversight of the economy, which has been in place for 12 years.
Greece will remain under supervision at the time of repayment of loans, as well as other EU states – Ireland, Spain, Cyprus and Portugal, which received financial assistance.
The country experienced a severe financial crisis that began in 2010 with a debt crisis, and as a result, under pressure from its creditors, was forced to introduce austerity measures. The Greeks lost about 25 percent of their income.
In August 2018, Greece successfully completed its third foreign financial assistance program. And now, as Greek Finance Minister Christos Saikuras pointed out the day before, the country is returning to European standards and is no exception in the eurozone.
Recall
Greece opposed the ban on issuing tourist Schengen visas to Russians.
