Greece: Tsipras, SYRIZA and the Bailout



A speculative article in The Telegraph

Greek candidate willing to call European leaders’ bluff

Ambrose Evans-Pritchard

"Alexis Tsipras told Greek voters as recently as last week that his government would cease to enforce the bail-out demands...

Events have rudely exposed the illusion that Greece's people will submit quietly to a decade of colonial treatment and debt servitude.

As matters stand, it is more likely than not that a defiant Alexis Tsipras will be the elected prime minister of Greece by late January. His Syriza alliance has vowed publicly and persistently that it will overthrow the EU-IMF Troika regime, refusing to implement the key demands".
