  • [01] Structural reforms desperately needed in Greece: Verhofstadt

    BRUSSELS (ANA-MPA/ M. Spinthourakis) - The president of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe, Guy Verhofstadt, this week again referred to the need for structural reforms in Greece.

    "2015 was a turbulent year for our continent. Not the least because of the Greek crisis. The people of Greece continue to suffer terribly as a result of years of political mismanagement and clientelism. As I made clear to Prime Minister (Alexis) Tsipras, it is important genuine reforms are now completed, to get Greece growing again. Looking to the future, the rest of Europe must also take steps to help ensure Greece's debt is on a sustainable footing," he posted on his Twitter account.

    [02] Chinese artist Ai Weiwei is on Lesvos recording refugee crisis

    Chinese artists and activist Ai Weiwei is on the Greek island of Lesvos recording aspects of the refugee crisis and speaking with refugees, volunteers and NGO's who are involved in assisting them.

    The artist has been posting pictures with refugees and migrants waiting to be registered at the identification and registration center in Moria, while today he also uploaded short videos showing refugee boats arriving to Lesvos' shores.

    According to the pictures Weiwei has posted online, he arrived to Athens three days ago and after a brief visit to the Acropolis and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, he traveled to Lesvos to continue his work.

    His pictures and videos are being shared on his Instagram account (https://www.instagram.com/aiww/).
