"Mr President, Commissioners, ladies and gentlemen, this Greek crisis is a European one. It is an economic, democratic and political crisis. You could even say that the current Greek tragedy is a European tragedy and we will only be able to resolve it together or go under together, which I hope will not be the case. This means that we must act together and we must not abandon Greece or, most importantly, the Greek people. What Greece needs is not just growth, but a green investment pact. Only 3% of Greece’s energy supply consists of solar energy and billions are being spent on oil and gas. This is an area where jobs can be created. Another point to mention is the loopholes in the national tax systems. Mr Rehn has rightly said that two governments – my own government in Austria and the Luxembourg Government – are preventing progress from being made with the revised interest directive. This means that these two governments are supporting tax evasion and tax fraud. They are siding with the tax fraudsters and tax evaders. Therefore, I am calling on both these governments to agree to stop their blockade at the summit tomorrow."@en1
