B. Schaeuble: “Or haircut, pensions or find alternative solutions”

Or haircut, pension, or alternatives requested, and again from Greece, the Finance minister of Germany, who… featured, also, as a non-urgent issue of the sustainability of the Greek debt!
“We need to find alternatives if Greece can’t reduce the pensions, in order to achieve the goal of Athens to complete the evaluation of the program by lenders in April,” said the second. Schaeuble, as reports Reuters. “If, for the reasons we know, there is not much room for manoeuvre in pension reform, then the three institutions have together with the Greek government to work in order to find something else instead,” said Schaeuble.
In what has to do with the subject of debt, the German Finance minister remained firm in his position that is not an emergency: “The debate on the sustainability of the debt is, unfortunately, a discussion for something that’s not urgent,” said the B. Schaeuble added that “on the contrary, the strengthening of competitiveness and implementation of structural reforms is more pressing”.Source
