DISY Calls for Emergency Economic Plan Amidst Middle East Crisis

The Democratic Rally (DISY) is urging the government to develop an immediate and comprehensive plan to address the economic consequences of the crisis in the Middle East. DISY emphasizes that inaction is not an option, given the increased uncertainty and the potential for long-term repercussions. The plan, according to DISY, should include support measures for consumers, vulnerable groups, tourism, investment, and the primary sector. DISY states that it is closely monitoring developments and has already submitted proposals, declaring its readiness to contribute constructively to the management of the situation. At the same time, it stresses the need to maintain fiscal space for economic stability and effective response to pressures. DISY's appeal to all political forces is to demonstrate prudence and seriousness, avoiding populist policies in the run-up to elections. Crisis management, according to DISY, requires institutional responsibility and composure, aiming for economic stability and not short-term gains. DISY expresses its concern about the potential impact of the crisis and emphasizes the need for an immediate and coordinated response to avoid negative consequences for the economy and society.
