for the advent of the quartet in Athens and the continuation of the negotiations.
How difficult or easy you found the agreement will depend to a very large extent by the developments in front of the refugees, since, as we wrote in the analysis in the newsit.gr with title “Evaluation and a refugee can lead us even in hell”, the two issues are linked whether we like it or not, which was proved by the decision of the Eurogroup.
The puzzles in the beginning was the statement of Jeroen Dijsselbloem for the start of the discussions on the debt, which is placed in April. Ippc means that the European partners have chosen to reach out to Athens on the issue of the fiscal gap (the differences between the two was not very large and insurmountable as the IMF), the insurance and the tax (of course there will be changes and cuts at least some pensions authority) and the IMF on the part of the debt, in response to the position expressed by the Thomsen article that: If the changes to the insurance is not very deep (see large cuts), then you have the Europeans will have to be very brave in setting up the debt.
Under the weight of refugees, and the fear of shipwreck, the Europeans did this double compromise, since even Wolfgang Schaeuble said that what matters is the agreement to be implemented in the summer (a position similar to that of the Greek government) and out of all the numbers.
The second piece of the puzzle is the oldest statement of Jeroen Îτάσελμπλουμ that the insurance reform is sustainable, but there is a problem until 2018. The problem is limited, but directly targets the personal difference of the old pensions, which will begin to be smoothed after 2018.
Of course, another pillar of the negotiations is the rapid completion of the assessment, in particular in the insurance and the tax, because the even greater delays threaten to blow the budget of 2016.
This direction is supported by the statement of Klaus Regling, head of the ESM, the mechanism that gives loans to Greece, according to which dries up the liquidity in Greece, which has liabilities of eur 2.5 billion. euro in the second half, that the evaluation needs to be finished by Easter of the Catholics and, above all, that the results of the budget was the best of the budgeted 2015, and the first two months of 2016, which very simply means that it adopts the positions of the Greek government and not the IMF.
Another piece of the puzzle is the statements by Dijsselbloem on the need for there to be even negotiations in order to ensure convergence and to achieve the target for a primary surplus of 3.5% in 2018.
Putting on the table all of the above means that measures need to be taken 1.8 billion. as a 2018 or perhaps a little more in order to satisfy the IMF.
This means that the bed of Procrustes, enter:
-Supplementary pensions above eur 170.
-High main pensions, up from the 2,300 euros, and the multiple more than 3,000 euros.
-The personal difference of the funds provided by pensions with a high replacement as TEBE (because of the bonus of 220 euro), Banks, Public sector, public UTILITIES, electricity, telephone and other noble funds.
-The one-time civil servants.
-The dividend of pensioners of the Public.
For tax information reporting that the Greek plan charges for taxpayers who declare more than 30,000 euros and charges to the tax of solidarity with incomes greater than 35,000 euros.
The taxation will be made on the same scale for all taxpayers, only the self-employed will not have tax-exempt receipts (which is proposed for farmers ) and will be taxed from the first euro.
The rental income would be taxed separately.
The information indicate that the quartet expresses arguments for their high rates after 65.000 euro and expresses the view that triggers tax evasion.
Also, disagrees with the tax-exempt farmers and proposes to reduce the income tax of employees and pensioners and asks you to cut other tax-free that do not have a developmental character.
As part of the process of the information indicate that it is very likely, in particular for the “red” loans to delay the negotiation and to become in April, in contrast to insurance, tax, and Fund assets (the information report that found a compromise formula that will be agreed immediately and for at least the first two will be tabled bills in Parliament within March.
