.@anders_aslund @Shefl well to be fair, #Greece was already there. #Syriza just sat in the car and shouted slogans
It should be stated clearly: The Syriza government has driven Greece into economic and political disaster w/o any benefits to the nation.

@AnMailleach@Shefl No Greece's recovery had started when Syriza came & brought about a new decline, which may become more catastrophic.

@anders_aslund@veitdengler Because before them everything was ok? We have this situation because Merkel was afraid to ask for a cut. -
@buercher@veitdengler Initial fiscal adjustment was tiny=irresponsible, EU financing excessive & EU decisions slow=bad, but Syriza=disaster

@anders_aslund They give the people the impression there is a choice. Cost of the referendum 110 Million €#greece -
@Bongo__Fury I agree. This is a meaningless referendum between a proposal no longer on the table & absurdity.

@anders_aslund Syriza promotes a toxic brand of cheap populism. But i would also argue that the troika created the Hydra monster. -
@EmmanuelCeyte Yes the troika has discredited itself - too much of collective irresponsibility & EU is too weak in all its forms but ECB.

@anders_aslund@IvoHDaalder History tells us that seldom are the causes of a disaster one-sided. Nobody will be exempt of the blame-game. -
.
@GerardAraud@anders_aslund Agree there's plenty of blame to go around. Referendum gambit, though, is form of political abdication - 1 more reply
