We will wait a bit and see what happens regarding Easter. The pandemic’s momentum changes from day to day,” the general secretary of Commerce and Consumer Protection Panagiotis Stamboulidis said on Monday to MEGA TV, regarding the opening of the retail market, according to ANA.
“The [epidemiologists’] committee is an independent agency and operates according to the requirements of its mission…. The government prepares proposals and the committee gives them a ‘green light’. Before announcing the opening of the retail market on 5 of April, the proposal was first passed by the epidemiologists’ committee,” he explained.
“Every week we present to the committee the proposals and the country’s economic condition. The committee should be aware of the repercussions of every decision on public finances. Today we made a small step, it is not the opening of the market, it has strict restrictions,” Stamboulidis added.
