Dear Messrs European Leaders,
With all due respect, allow me to address to you for another time, as an ordinary
Greek citizen, who closely
follows the events, cares for our future and worries for the consequences.
A fundamental way to start this letter, is to remind you
that, apart of being partners and perhaps friends, we are all passengers on the
same boat and therefore we have to face the storm that we have come across,
together with prudency and solidarity, with practical and constructive
measures, measures which apart of the effectiveness, should prove the mutual
interest as a solid group of countries.
Allow me to comment that the austere and painful measures
you are imposing us so far, are not effective at all, consequently useless and
on top make us miserable, comparable only with the period of occupation in
1941-45. Thus you are giving the impression that you do not care for the Greek
people, with complete lack of solidarity and partnership. We all hope that the
appearance is wrong, false and misinterpreted.
In my opinion, there are two alternatives for the
Euro-Zone to establish a strong, reliable and effective union, as it was agreed
and were the ideals of all of us. As Jean Mannet saw the vision and dreamed by
Robert Schuman.
A’ The monetary
issue.
One of the adverse consequences that the economic crisis
created, was that “we placed the coach in
front of the horse”, as we say here. The money, as a rule, reflects the
economy of the Country and it is also used as a tool, in the hands of a prudent
Government, to regulate the economic and social prevailing circumstances.
The Euro, the money of the Euro-Zone, who’s Country
economy reflects? Once the economy of Euro-Zone is not unified, the Euro is
money without foundation, is money in the air and as such, I ‘m afraid that it
will not last for long, if the Euro-Zone will not be reformed.
If we all want to strengthen the Euro-Zone and the Euro
to survive, we must proceed to the economic unification, in a way to have one
Country. One of the duties of such a unified
Euro-Zone, is to stabilize the economy of each Country and regulate the measures,
so as all countries to be raised economically.
Kindly think about it and hopefully act accordingly.
B’ Economic
problem of Greece
If the solution of the monetary issue
cannot be solved overnight, the economic problem of Greece Greece
We all claim that
we need economic growth which cannot be achieved with restrictive measures. A
precondition for economic growth is to have tranquility to plan and reorganize
the Country’s economy. Such tranquility can be achieved by sending back all
loans’ obligations.
Therefore,
instead of trying to convince the lenders to haircut their loans by 50% or
more, ask them to:
implement an interest-free
moratorium for five or ten years.
In this way we
will have time to re-organize and restart our economy, to creat growth and
primary surpluses, which will allow us to plan the repayment of our loans.
This proposal can
be done immediately, will stop all frictions and a new era will start for
Europe and Greece
Thank you for
your attention
Yours faithfully
Nicos
Anagnostatos
