Alexis Tsipras

Alexis Tsipras

A depressing day indeed….

I can’t stand seeing the European so called leaders passing their comments on the Greek debt repayment. We have seen many austerity plans imposed on Greece since 2012, with absolutely no results except the increase of the Greek debt, the increase of the unemployment reaching heights of 27% and a country left with absolutely no hope or perspectives. These measures were just a strangulations making sure that exposed banks recover their loans and Greeks being forced to purchase German industrial products. Gone are the times when Helmut Kohl and Francois Mitterand created Europe with a great vision. Nothing remains of it, politicians are been shadowed by finance minister and IMF. Do you remember 1954 when Germany was allowed to write off their debts and get a fresh start with the result we have been?

I don’t know how the referendum on Sunday will end, I guess the majority will support their government and vote against the latest EU proposal. Maybe this will bring a shake up amongst us, who deeply feel European and don’t think that “money” should be the main fuel of Europe…

Indeed a very sad day…
