Greek economic programme popular yet questioned

  • 9 years ago
THe Greek parliament expected to give a vote of confidence tonight to new Syriza government's economic programme- it's promising an end to austerity, increased spending, end to privatisations- meaning potential for major disagreements with the EU, the ECB and IMF, who have lent Greece more than 200 billion Euros in emergency bail-out fund
Greeks are supportive of the government's policy, but some question whether it is realistic.
