This consumption is not accompanied ‎by a decrease in savings, which actually continue to grow," Stournaras told in.gr. ‎

‎"We are the European champions of tax evasion, despite the progress made in increasing tax ‎revenues as a percentage of the GDP," Stournaras stressed. He expressed confidence that the ‎country will regain its investment rating this year, and reiterated that ‎Greece needs a ‎government with a long-term horizon.‎
