The European Central Bank has joined others around the world by raising its base rate in an effort to curb inflation. It's the first time the Eurozone has seen higher interest rates since 2011. Back then, Greece was the epicentre of a debt crisis which engulfed the whole continent's economy. Join us for a special edition of World Business Report, live from Athens. Victoria Craig hears from economists and business owners about how the economy is coping in 2022; as well as young Greek citizens who face an uncertain future.
