Spain's Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy speaks during a control session at the Spanish Parliament, in Madrid, Spain, Wednesday, July 11, 2012. The Spanish s government has imposed further austerity measures on the debt-ridden country to avert financial collapse as angry miners rallied against subsidy cuts. Addressing the parliament on Wednesday, Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy unveiled sales tax hikes and spending cuts aimed at shaving 65 billion euros (some $80 billion) off the state budget over the next two and a half years, the Associated Press reported. "These are not pleasant measures but they are necessary," said the 57-year-old leader of the conservative Popular Party. He also warned that Spain's future was at stake as it grapples with recession, a bloated deficit and investor wariness of its sovereign debt. “We are living in a crucial moment which will determine our future and that of our families, that of our youths, of our welfare state,” said Rajoy. “This is the reality. There is no other and we have to get out of this hole and we have to do it as soon as possible and there is no room for fantasies or off-the cuff improvisations because there is no choice,” the Spanish prime minister pointed out. According to the new austerity measures announced by Rajoy, VAT goes up to 21 percent from 18 percent, and the reduced rate on some products such as food goes up to 10 percent from eight percent. A special four-percent rate on basic needs such as bread is untouched. Meanwhile, Public administration is to be reformed to save 3.5 billion euros, including a drastic cut in the number of publically owned enterprises and a 30-percent cut in the number of local councilors. Rajoy’s announcement of a new raft of austerity measures came as thousands of miners stung by a huge cut in government subsidies marched through downtown Madrid. Spain’s fresh austerity package is imposed a day after eurozone finance ministers agreed in Brussels, Belgium, to provide a first slice of 30 billion euros ($36 billion) for Spain's banks this month. The jobless rate in Spain is nearly 25 percent and the forecast is for the economy to shrink 1.7 percent this year. Spain - the fourth-largest economy in the eurozone - is mired in its second recession in three years. MP/AZ

NEOPHODNI REZOVI Španjolskoj 100 milijardi eura u zamjenu za stroge mjere štednje: Režu se plaće i božićnice, diže se PDV AP Photo/Andres Kudacki MADRID - Španjolska je vlada najavila nove proračunske rezove kojima bi država u iduće dvije i pol godine trebala uštedjeti 65 milijardi eura, što iznosi 6,5 posto BDP-a. Vlada premijera Mariana Rajoya na rezove se obvezala u zamjenu za pomoć Europske Unije za njezine banke. Još nije poznato koliko će joj novca trebati - prošli je mjesec dogovoreno da taj iznos neće prelaziti 100 milijardi eura - ali već ovaj mjesec Španjolska će dobiti 30 milijardi. Iako se u početku spekuliralo da bi pomoć mogla ići izravno bankama i da se neće zbrajati u javni dug, to se nije dogodilo, jednako kao što se nisu obistinile ni teorije da u zamjenu za pomoć španjolska država neće morati provesti mjere štednje. Hoće, a jučer je Rajoy najavio i kakve. Rezovi uključuju smanjenje plaća djelatnicima u javnom sektoru i parlamentarnim zastupnicima, kao i suspenziju božićnica u javnom sektoru. Osnovna stopa PDV-a će se povećati s 18 na 21 posto, a s 8 na 10 posto će porasti i snižena stopa za javni prijevoz, hotele i procesuiranu hranu. Samo će najniža stopa na kruh, lijekove i knjige ostati 4 posto. Nezaposleni će dobivati niže naknade, u lokalnim samoupravama proračun će se smanjiti za 3,5 milijardi eura, a broj vijećnika za 30 posto. Dvadeset posto manje novca iduće će godine dobiti i političke stranke i sindikati, a ubrzat će se i povećanje dobi za punu mirovinu sa 65 na 67 godina. - Živimo u ključnom trenutku koji će odlučiti našu budućnost ibudućnost naših obitelji, naših mladih, naše socijalne države. To je realnost. Nema druge, mi se moramo iskopati iz ove rupei moramo to učiniti što je prije moguće te nema mjesta našim fantazijama ili improvizacijama zbog toga što nema izbora - rekao je zastupnicima Rajoy te poručio da se mjere moraju donijeti “bez odgađanja”.
