Greece has been the recipient of the biggest amount of financial support among all European Union member states, as in the period from 2000 to 2015 the total inflow of cash from Brussels amounted to 71.8 billion euros, or about 4.5 billion euros per year on average.

According to data seen by Kathimerini, the amount of European subsidies and funds that this country has received is – in relation to the size of its economy – 35 percent higher than funding collected in the same period by Portugal. It is also 250 percent higher than the funding that Ireland has received and 320 percent above what Spain has been granted.

Shifting landscape in the EU after Brexit vote

Who will follow the British in their decision to leave the European Union? And are there likely to be any departures from the eurozone? For Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz, Italy is the next EU member-state that will be leaving the bloc, while he recommends that Greece and Portugal follow suit.

Used car imports soared 47 percent in September

Industry experts attribute this to uncontrolled imports – some of them with tampered mileage – and favorable taxes.
