Greece froze in anticipation of major troubles caused by an unprecedented widespread rise in prices as a result of anti-Russian sanctions.
The country’s population is outraged by the exorbitant increase in energy tariffs and is seriously afraid of a complete loss of consumer solvency. This is especially true for vulnerable social groups.
“Many people may have to cut basic expenses to balance their monthly family budget,” economist Manolis Mpernidakis was quoted as saying by RIA Novosti.
According to the expert’s forecasts, first of all, against the backdrop of the difficult energy situation in the European market, which has sagged under the weight of the reverse effect of anti-Russian restrictive measures, the rise in price will hit the energy sector.
“Energy resources have been hit the hardest by this growth and this is what will continue and the situation will worsen even more in the next few months, especially in the event of new sanctions against Russia on gas,” the expert replied.
If the European Union decides to decide on additional restrictions against Russia and does not put the issue of energy supplies in order in the shortest possible time, the valve will be closed, and Europe will be left without gas, the economist is sure.
From now on, the Greeks, understanding the complexity of the situation, prefer walking to comfortable car trips and, despite the approach of Easter, save significantly on the grocery basket.
Let’s remind, the price collapse is observed in all Europe. Only in Germany the level of inflation reached a record level for the last four decades and last month amounted to 7.3%. The Czech Republic did not go far either, the March 12.7 percent triumphantly beat the country’s “achievements” over the past quarter of a century.
