Is there a newspaper or magazine to which Yanis Varoufakis hasn't given an interview? It's all beginning to seem a little obsessive.

Update, March 27, 2018, EU Observer, Varoufakis Launches Political Party

"Economist and Greek former finance minister Yanis Varoufakis launched a new party on Monday, to run in future national elections. Named MeRA25, for European Realistic Disobedience Front, the party is part of DiEM25, the pan-European party launched by Varoufakis in 2016. Varoufakis pledges to free Greece from its debt and to "disobey the incompetent pseudo-technocrats who, on the altar of narrow oligarchic interests, are sacrificing Greece while de-legitimising Europe."
