On the one hand, the Minister is saying "no write-downs", which is what the Greeks want, but on the other, the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine said that if the Greeks did get a write-down we would want one too. We are not going to help them to get a write-down but we want to benefit from any write-down they achieve. Is that not a shameful position to take?
