There are many measures under consideration to support the economy, he said
Greek Finance Minister Christos Staikouras
This is the second phase of the government's measures to face the economic and health crisis
"We will try to raise additional funds from the markets on satisfactory terms"
"We are using a lot of weapons, but we are also keeping supplies for the next day when the crisis is over"
The Easter bonus must be paid to all workers in the private sector although this could be paid with a delay without any sanctions
There is no a surplus target of 3.5 pct of GDP for Greece this year
Staikouras said priority had been given to the public health system
Greece is scrambling to rebuild public services, its military & major infrastructures after years of funding cuts
The budget allows for such a policy he said
Staikouras revealed that he plans to make permanent an annual bonus paid out to pensioners, without jeopardizing fiscal stability
