According to I. Šimonytė, a “really big” budget deficit is expected, so the difference between expenses and income will have to be covered with borrowed money.
“There is a simple question: what are we going to do with that borrowed money? And this is not only the borrowed money, but also the planned European Union Recovery Fund,” I. Šimonytė told News Radio on Friday.
“It just came to our attention then. It is not a question of whether the child’s money will increase, it will increase. It is not a question of whether pensions will be indexed, pensions will be indexed. It is not a question of whether MMA will increase, MMA will increase. “, He said.
According to her, there is a high risk that the borrowed money will be misused.
“Because there is a short period of time to spend this money, there is a very high risk that we will simply pump a lot of money into the economy, the price goes up, say construction or some other activity, and we do not have the change that we could have” said the conservative. leader of the list.
I. Šimonytė added that money borrowed from EU funding sources should create an “income stream” from which public debt could be repaid in the future.
It makes no sense to destroy peasant decisions
The leader of the conservative list also remains cautious in overthrowing the decisions of the ruling peasants.
“It just came to our attention then. There are solutions that have been good, you have to continue and sometimes dig deeper. There are solutions that have been the subject of considerable debate, but it is certainly not the level of discussion that needs to be changed. Just you have to look at reality with wide eyes, “said I. Šimonytė.
“Now the peasants are trying to intimidate the conservatives into taking the money from that child, in no way,” he said.
According to her, the policy itself could be different.
“There are things in which perhaps politics itself could be different, how we make decisions, how we continue to do what we have not done until now, whether we speak or impose our will,” said the conservative.
He also argued that those in power should not impose their will on the opposition.
