The Finance Minister of Greece, Yanis Varoufakis, confirmed on
Mondaythat he would go to the Eurogroup of euro zone finance ministers
with a request for a bridge agreement to tide Greece over until a new
debt pact with international lenders could be sealed.
Reuters reports:
But the outspoken leftist was unwavering in dismissing
bailouts and the austerity that went with them, saying earlier
celebrations of loans had been a “toxic dream” and accusing the European
Central Bank of losing control over monetary policy by allowing
deflation.
“The end of the crisis will not come if we say yes to another
(bailout) program,” he told parliament. “The truth is that this
(bailout) program … was destined to failure no matter who was
implementing it.”
