TEHRAN, November 20 -Greece is likely to beat its fiscal targets, including the primary surplus, for the third year in a row, but needs to continue the reforms it promised as part of the last bailout program, the chairman of euro zone finance ministers said.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) -Greece is likely to beat its fiscal targets, including the primary surplus, for the third year in a row, but needs to continue the reforms it promised as part of the last bailout program, the chairman of euro zone finance ministers said.
Speaking at a hearing in the European Parliament’s economic committee, Mario Centeno said the outlook for the Greek economy was positive.
“The fiscal performance has been outstanding. Recent data suggests that Greece will overshoot its fiscal objectives for the third year in a row, including the primary surplus target of 3.5 percent,” Centeno said.
“Greece should stay the course and continue implementing sound fiscal policies and growth-enhancing reforms. These are needed to improve the living conditions and prospects of its citizens in a lasting way,” he said.
