What happened:
The Euro Group intends to phase out the aid program for Greece.
The stop of payments is a response to the announcement made by Prime Minister of Greece Tsipras to let the Greeks vote in a referendum on July 5 on the austerity package. His party wants to ask voters to “no” vote.
The Parliament in Athens approved the holding of a referendum. Whether it ever comes to that, is uncertain – the payments to Greece are already due on the night of 30 June.

They dominated the slogans, personal and party conflicts and efforts to gain impressions and not he would distinguish the truth. Not the truth of the one or the other, but one that is close to an objective. To make a little effort with the hope to contribute a little to the understanding, nothing more. Read more
