"Reforms are necessary to make the country more friendly to entrepreneurism and investments," he said.
"They should look at taxation issues, see what they can do regarding the justice system, focus on research and innovation and give incentives to young people who left the country in recent years in order to come back to Greece," Yannopoulos said, outlining some of the topics that need to be addressed.
Ten years after the outbreak of the debt crisis which brought the country at the brink of bankruptcy and after the implementation of three harsh bailout programs that kept her afloat and in the eurozone, many financial indexes look good, but chronic, structural shortcomings are still here. Greece still lags on crucial reforms to build a healthy economy with sustainable growth.
Inaction is one of the key factors that may undermine the new government's ambitious agenda, he warned.
"The challenge is to overcome the inaction of recent years, which we observed during the previous government's term, but also their predecessors'. I will say this again, that they should address critical issues, such as taxation, and ensure financial, political and social stability," Yannopoulos said.
"It is very important for the next day -- and at this point lie also the responsibilities of the entire opposition -- to maintain a responsible stance towards any reforms which will be put forward so that there will be no turbulence like the ones we witnessed in particular in the early years of the crisis," he said.
