Greece Refuses To Back Down: “Government Will Do As Promised” Tsipras Says (ZeroHedge, Feb 5, 2015):

With an increasingly vitriolic tone, the new Greek government has come out swinging today with leader Alexis Tsipras making it clear that he will implement the election pledges the people of Greece voted for:

  • A NEW GREEK GOVT WILL BARGAIN TOUGH, AND PUT A FINAL END TO THE TROIKA AND ITS POLICIES
  • WE MANAGED TO DECONSTRUCT THE EUROPEAN STATUS QUO THAT WANTS MORE AUSTERITY AND LESS DEMOCRACY

It took one week, Tsipras chides, to get European leaders to talk about the real problems and Greece will negotiate hard to “put an end to Troika.”

Tsipras adds:

  • *GREECE’S TSIPRAS SAYS GREEK PEOPLE WRITING HISTORY, DETERMINED
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS WILL NOT ALLOW FIRESALE OF NATIONAL WEALTH
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS NEW GOVT WILL NEGOTIATE HARD, PUT AN END TO TROIKA
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS GOVT TO PRESENT ITS OWN ROADMAP TO EXIT CRISIS
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS ONLY TOOK ONE WEEK TO CHANGE EU DISCUSSION AGENDA
  • *TSIPRAS: TOOK ONE WEEK TO GET EU TO TALK ABOUT REAL PROBLEMS
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS WILL IMPLEMENT ELECTION CAMPAIGN PLEDGES
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS GOVT DOESN’T THREATEN BALANCE IN EUROPE
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS GOVT DETERMINED TO OVERHAUL PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS GOVT HAS CONCRETE, STRATEGIC NEGOTIATION PLAN
  • *TSIPRAS: GOVT PRESENTED ITS PLAN TO CREDITORS, GAINED ALLIES
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS WAITING WITH GREAT INTEREST FOR GERMAN PROPOSALS
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS GOVT COMMITTED TO EU RULES, WILL RESPECT THEM
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS NOT AIMING TO CREATE NEW DIVIDE IN EUROPE
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS AUSTERITY IS NOT A EUROPEAN UNION RULE

And then the ECB chimes in…

  • *KNOT SAYS ECB DOESN’T SEE PROOF THAT GREEK PROGRAM ON TRACK

*  *  *

And Tsipras counters…

  • *TSIPRAS SAYS GOVT GUARANTEES GREEK BANK SYSTEM DEPOSITS SAFE

“We will make the impossible, possible to turn things around in Greece”

*  *  *

  • *TSIPRAS SAYS WE NEED TO REBUILD COUNTRY FROM THE BEGINNING
  • *TSIPRAS SAYS GREEK, EUROPEAN DEMOCRACY CANNOT BE BLACKMAILED

  1. If I had Russia and BRICS behind me, I’d come out swinging, too.
    I urge all who read this to look at a globe of the world, maps just don’t tell the story as profoundly as a globe does. Years ago as a senior in college, I was able to predict the Iraq Iran war based on the globe. After the US lost Iran, it was obvious what would happen………and it did.

    Wars are planned years in advance, and when they don’t come off as planned, it shows a great weakness in those doing the planning. The US keeps up the threats of war everywhere, but if one looks at the real estate on the side of the East (Russia), Brazil, and all surrounding countries including South and Central America….., Russia, and all surrounding countries, India, China and South Africa and most other emerging African nations have all joined with Putin as members of BRICS. Australia and New Zealand dumped the dollar in 2013. Now, Canada has joined as has Switzerland. Now that OPEC kicked the petrodollar to the curb in December, also Turkey, Qatar and Iran are already members………Putin owns most of the real estate. The only remaining economic power on the US side is the EU, and they are mired in debt.
    If Putin gets the other EU nations besides Greece, especially Spain, Italy and France, he has the west surrounded. He has already developed an economy around the US and to a lessor degree, the EU. His economy is prospering, the isolated US and EU are starving.
    Regardless of the endless lies told Americans every day, it is the US that is isolated, not Russia.
    We have idiots in power, Russia has a genius.
    Not a good outlook for us.
