Why did the Prime Minister choose not to reduce VAT, and what are the potential consequences of the opposition's alternative proposals?

Mitsotakis cited a Bank of Greece study indicating that only 20% of a VAT reduction would be passed on to consumers, resulting in a meager 30-euro monthly benefit. He also argued that VAT reduction would benefit all, including tourists, while his plan focuses support on those most in need. He claims the opposition's proposals are unfunded and could jeopardize Greece's fragile economic recovery and lead to renewed economic supervision.
