ETUC General Secretary Bernadette Ségol today said Germany was “playing with fire” in rejecting the new Greek Government’s compromise proposal for an its extension of its bailout.
“Germany is demanding unconditional surrender from proud people that has elected a new Government on a crystal clear platform of easing austerity.”
“There needs to be a deal and for that all sides need to compromise. German is playing hardball but is playing with fire.”
“Tomorrow’s Eurozone Finance Ministers meeting needs to be more realistic.”
“A Greek exit from the Eurozone would be a disaster for Greece, a disaster for the Eurozone, and undoubtedly bad news for Greece’s creditors.”
