Averof Neophytou's tweet to shed light on today's economy

In a recent Twitter post, Averof Neophytou, a well-known figure in politics and a former leader of the Democratic Party, shared his thoughts on the current state of the economy. Neophytou, who is also a member of the parliament, expressed his concerns about the recent economic trends.

Specifically, he pointed out that the pace of economic growth during the second quarter has slowed down when compared to the first quarter. Additionally, Neophytou noted that the financial situation for the same period has taken a negative turn.

Ο ρυθμός οικον. ανάπτυξης β’ 3μήνου παρουσίαζει συρρίκνωση σε σύγκριση με το α’ 3μηνο. Επιπλέον, το δημοσιονομικό ισοζύγιο β’ 3μήνου είναι πλέον αρνητικό. Η οικονομία χρειάζεται σοβαρότητα και όχι εικόνα. Θέλει μέτρα και όχι λαϊκισμούς.
