Speaking to SKAI a few hours ago, government spokesman Yannis Economou said that tomorrow's announcements by the relevant ministers will include three pillars of measures: a horizontal continuation of support in electricity, which will be greater, the accuracy check and intervention in fuel.
Regarding the accuracy check, he said that it will support the most vulnerable citizens and its amount will be finalized during the day. It is money that will be given directly to citizens and will be unconfiscated.
The government spokesman noted that it will be given before Easter.
Regarding the fuel aid, Mr. Economou said that the government will give as many resources as it can.
"There will be aid for a level of consumption, a significant discount on the price of a litre. The measure will not be horizontal, but it will affect a lot of people, there will be differentiated income criteria. Everything will be done immediately and will be simplified, perhaps even before going to the gas station," he said.
On the support for electricity, he said it has been decided to give another month.
"We are adding another support to put a brake on the rise in prices," he said.
On the amount of the measures, he said they are within the limits of the country's fiscal strength, they are all measured.
