“The projects that will be financed by the ‘Juncker package’ will soon be announced,” Economy Minister George Stathakis on Thursday assured in Parliament.
Stathakis answered a question raised by main opposition New Democracy deputy Costis Hatzidakis and Democratic Alliance deputy Vassilis Kegeroglou.
“Greece has selected 42 projects of 5.6 billion euros to be financed by the Juncker package. They are 42 projects, of which 18 is purely private, and others that will be carried out with the collaboration of the private and the public sector,” he noted and pointed out that the ‘Juncker package’ does not provide direct funding but it is a “mechanism of providing assistance to private projects” by offering guarantees and low interest rates.
