From The Guardian - "Mario Draghi reveals extra €900m in emergency funding and adds backing for debt writeoffs as hopes rise that Greek banks will reopen on Monday".

SPIEGEL Interview with Wolfgang Schäuble: 'There Is No German Dominance'
SPIEGEL: The American economist Paul Krugman has a clear position on that. The new aid program for Greece, he wrote in a recent column in the New York Times, is "pure vindictiveness" and a "complete destruction of national sovereignty." Do you share his view?
Schäuble: Krugman is a prominent economist who won a Nobel Prize for his trade theory. But he has no idea about the architecture and foundation of the European currency union. In contrast to the United States, there is no central government in Europe and all 19 members of the euro zone must come to an agreement. It appears Mr. Krugman is unaware of that.
