To continue on the same lines, I find it pretty amazing and quite shocking that neither the Minister nor the European Commissioner with responsibility for Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union, Commissioner Hill, whom I met yesterday, will give any detail about the gap between the European Union and the Greek Government, when we talk about that gap potentially leading to Greece’s exit from the eurozone. Commissioner Hill says he does not know the details, we can get them in the media and the Minister is more or less telling us he does not know the details, yet we are talking about an existential crisis.
