Senior government source stated on Thursday afternoon that the statement by Alexis Tsipras on “psychological issues” today in Parliament was not the minister of Finance Wolfgang Schaeuble.
The contested statement by the prime minister earlier today at an event in the House and was as follows: “Those who in these days of us waving and finger, in the name of the agreements, and addressed me shameful manner for the Greek people, to know that you must first adhere to those commitments, and then turn to us. Days that is, having the spirit of Christmas, I reciprocate by telling them happy birthday, merry Christmas and a good heart. To have the blessing, to feel good and to be happy in their soul. Those who are not well in their souls, they can’t cope with the problems of their country, nor of Europe’s problems, nor the problems of the whole world”.
Taking into account that it was preceded by the harsh personal attack Schaeuble in the Alexis Tsipras with the statement: “No understanding when the Tsipras casts blame on Germany for pensions”, the majority of the MEDIA interpreted the disgust of the prime minister as a petition to the German minister of Finance.
For the reason that senior government source was quick to clarify that Alexis Tsipras wasn’t referring to mr Schaeuble. I made it clear, however, who finally spoke…
Not that he wants the Championships…
In conversation with journalists that cover the government’s story, the same high official was asked to be placed in the comment of a political author that “the Association has gone crazy”.
“Good, isn’t it? It means that not getting his own way…” commented the same maximum government source.
The government agent estimated that echoes in a genuine way the thoughts of Alexis Tsipras asked if he is optimistic and replied: “As you know, I fall into the cauldron of optimism”.
Expect a normalisation in the short-circuit with the lenders
Other government official with knowledge of the daily discussions with the lenders considered that by next week will have ironed out the situation with the lenders as to the issue of the freezing of short-term measures for the debt.
He noted that there will be a discussion and will be given a text on the issues raised by the EuroWorking Group, whereas there will be a settlement without the need for a meeting by another institution,such as the Eurogroup.
As hopeful said the government official for the completion of the second assessment in January.
“The problem is the attitude of the IMF. In Europe there is no one who wants revival of the Greek crisis other than some who do it in a artificial way. There are no real reasons for the resurgence of the Greek crisis” pointed out by the same government official.
He estimated that the artificial resurgence of the Greek crisis comes mainly from the uncompromising stance of some for internal consumption and noted: “there can’t be forces who want the fall of government of another country”.
