In a letter to Greek finance minister Ghikas Hardouvelis, the troikademands the withdrawal of paymentarrangements  fordebtsto tax authorities and social security funds, inuptoonehundredinstallments,as well as the arrangements  for "red" loans.

According to newspaper KATHIMERINI, the creditors claim that the fiscal cost of the recent governmental debtarrangements is estimated to be more than 1 billion euros for 2015 which will be added to the existing fiscal gap of 1.5 billion euros.

----- SYRIZA  announced that "The moment that the Prime Minister heralds the entry of the country in a Post-Memorandum era, the troika via an e-mail reminds him that he is not allowed to an opinion on the crucial matter of   public debt arrangements."

As stated in the same announcement " SYRIZA has already tabled its own plan concerning paymentarrangements  fordebts which, in contrast to the government's criticism, takes into account the actual revenue of the debtors."

---- DEMAR was also very critical of the government and its claims that the country is ready for an exit from the Memorandum, with Fotis Kouvelis referring to     the "enhanced conditions credit line" as another version of thebailout program, noting that "it debunks the rhetoric of the government about the end of the Memorandum".

Jean-Claude Juncker  is in a difficult position after it became known that  Luxembourg's huge tax avoidance industry was developed during the years when he was the finance minister and then the prime minister of the tiny EU member-state.

 343  international companies like Pepsi, Ikea and FedEx ,nine of which have Greek links, have secured  secret tax deals from Luxembourg, allowing many of them to slash their overall tax bills while maintaining little presence in the country.

The EFG Group, in which the powerful Latsis family is involved, and Weather Investments, which operates in Greece as Wind Hellas, are among the international corporations that have special agreements with the Luxembourg authorities that help them reduce their tax bills.
