  • [01] ESM received Greek request

    The European Stability Mechanism (ESM) received the Greek request on a new loan programme, said an ESM representative on Wednesday.

    [02] Tusk: If someone believes that there will be no repercussions from a Grexit, is naive

    "Two weeks ago we believed that a deal was possible. Today, we see that we do not have time to build the trust but it is necessary to proceed and leave the past behind us" stated to the Europarliament plenum the president of the European Council Donald Tusk on Wednesday.

    "Yesterday (Tuesday) we had an honest exchange of view over the prevailing conditions. We asked from Alexis Tsipras (Greek prime minister) to state his views on a viable growth in Greece. The European Council will discuss the Greek request for assistance from the ESM" said Tusk.

    All sides are responsible for today's condition and I call from all consensus without winners and losers. If this is not achieved it will mean the end of the negotiations.

    Our inability to agree may lead to Greece and to its banking system bankruptcy and it is certain that it will be painful for the Greek people. That will have repercussions and in Europe and geopolitically and if someone has illusions that there will not be any repercussions, he is naive.

    We are all co-responsible. This week is the last deadline. As Plutarch said it is easy to put the blame on someone but to correct the problem is more difficult. I hope our correction to be easier than what Plutarch said, concluded Tusk.
