EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT PRESIDENT JERZY BUZEK

RE:               Eurobonds

Suggestions:  

Good morning President. German Chancellor Angela Merkel insisting that introducing Euro-zone wide government bonds wouldn’t solve the current debt crisis but I kept on insisting introducing Eurobonds will solve the current debt crisis since June 2011. I also wrote to Spiegel Online in the month of June 2011, saying that Europe should move to the Eurobond fund, guarantee AAA rated Euro-zone countries will not pay any higher rates then they do now, if they want to borrow, by allowing them to take the difference out of the fund while other European countries such as PIIGS would borrow at the normal rate likely around 4% allowing them lower rates than normal and AAA rated countries the same rates they receive now. Putting in Eurobonds to try to reduce the interest pressure on PIIGS borrowing would solve the underlying problem. I believe this is to be the best option.

Mr. President, individual countries would not really be able to issue Eurobonds. That would make them even more dependent on creditworthy members like Germany and France. For instance, when I buy Eurobonds, I don’t worry or care about the public finances of individual EU states. In addition I’ll have no longer deal with individual countries.   I want European Union to be integrated enough to issue Eurobonds but Germany do not want to really integrate. Germany has benefited from the EU. Germany has benefited from the Euro. German exporters have enjoyed boon from the common currency. Indeed Germany wants to continue the European projects. Germany will have to negotiate some sort of transfer union that would involve Eurobonds and some form of European economic governance. Germany has to understand that PIIGS countries cannot leave the Euro. The cost would be far too high for them and their currency would devalue wiping clean all middle class savings.

Mr. President, Eurobonds would be underwritten by not Germany but the central fiscal institution in Brussels. I hope that you’ll start issuing Eurobonds to resolve the current debt crisis.

Thank you very much for your kind attention Mr. President.

Sincerely,

Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja.

BRITAIN’S BREXIT BATTLE 2019

To:     The Right Honourable European Commission President Hon. Jean-Claude Juncker   From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: August 19, 2019 RE:      BRITAIN’S BREXIT BATTLE   Suggestion: Hon. European Commission President, let me start by paying my respects to you and through you to. The UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has insisted repeatedly that backstop must go, if not then no deal BREXIT but he support the GFA and custom-free border between the UK (Northern Ireland) and the EU (Republic of Ireland). That is a blatant contradiction. How can he have it both ways? If the UK wanted to exit from the EU bloc without a deal - the return of a hard border is absolutely necessary. Why BREXITERS are object to the backstop? The reason behind that it would give the EU way to keep a toehold in future UK trade policy. If the UK wanted to leave the EU without backstop, in other words, a hard BREXIT or there is been no exit agreement by both the UK and the EU – then the r

HONG KONG EXTRADITION BILL 2019

To:     The Right Honourable Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China Ms. Carrie Lam From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: August 29, 2019 RE:      HONG KONG EXTRADITION BILL 2019 Suggestion: Hon. Chief Executive of the Hong Kong let me start by paying my respects to you and through you to. “One Country Two Systems” structure compels Hong Kong to operate currently under different legal system than that of Mainland China. You published the extradition bill on March 29, 2019 and first reading on April 3, 2019 which will destroy Hong Kong legal independence because extradition bill is another attempt for China to take away the Hong Kong independent legal system that China has agreed for Hong Kong to keep until 2047. Thus, the people of Hong Kong marched their protest against the bill on June 9, 2019. Hong Kong protests are still continuing. The silence of your government leads me to believe you have no plan t

EU NEW FISCAL AUTHORITY FOR WEAK MEMBER STATES

This paper focuses on setting up new fiscal authority to manage compatible fiscal decentralisation and budgetary discipline in the EU Member States. The authority need to adopt a tough fiscal consolidation programme. The authority should be responsible for designing fiscal policy for all Member States with stricter rules, conscientious monitoring and enforcement mechanisms for the conduct of fiscal decentralisation and budgetary policy. If Member States does not implement or violate the fiscal authority law that Member State/States to be sued in the European Court of Justice. We cannot grow our economy without proper fiscal cooperation between Member States. So the fiscal authority must coach at least weak Member States how to implement effective fiscal policy so that crony driven economy can be turned into a competitive market based economy. EU established the provisions of the Stability and Growth Pact (SGP) to avoid excessive deficits of the Member States and take precise act
