The bomb clockwork from defuse represented by Greece, even before Brussels, swoops on G20 in Istanbul. Where the US and Britain are pressing in Eurozone to find a solution and avoid a new phase of instability from potentially global repercussions. The premier greek Alexi Tsipras meanwhile presenting the program guidelines of his government insists it will go ahead with the program announced in the election campaign: “I pledge to fully respect the program of the party with which I won the election,” says Parliament with measures to reduce waste (zero reorganization of public television, sale of 800 blue car, cost cutting) and says that “Greece wants to pay his debt, but he wants to reach a common understanding with partners for the interest of all. The greek debt problem R 20;is not economic but political,” he notes. The memorandum, cuts short Tsipras, failed now the Hellenic country asks “a new agreement-bridge until June to renegotiate its debt”. A condition that “to be honest, I am sure we will reach” could perhaps represent a truce and a possible way out of the risk of default as early as March. Meanwhile in Athens, after Rome and Paris were largely made by ceding leadership in negotiations with Angela Merkel, sends a barb aimed at the government Renzi. »Italian officials have told me that they can not tell the truth. Even Italy is at risk bankruptcy but fear reprisals from Germany “, says Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis after the European tour that took him to Rome. Heavy words that break sharply with the style ‘stealthy’ which usually dominates the exchanges between the European ministers, and that bear witness to the disappointment of Athens for the lack of solidarity on the part of cou ntries, Italy and France in the lead, that in fact the Stop austerity had its own flag. Dry even the replica of Italian Economy Minister, Pier Carlo Padoan: “our debt is sustainable”, the words of Varoufakis are misplaced. The visit of Varoufakis in Rome, London, Paris, Berlin has not led alliances in the confrontation with the Eurozone. The Chancellor has explicitly said that Athens is isolated and that Italy and France are with Berlin. And the greek minister, in an interview with Socket Direct brings up the debt, to the top in the European ranking, shared by Greece and Italy. An output that is used to open a gap in the supposed European compactness on the position of Germany in front of the “New Deal” asked from Athens, he would like to remit part of its debt, the end of the monitoring missions of the troika and, above all, a loan bridge which enables it to not sign a new program with the trio EU-ECB-IMF. Athens would like to come out in particular the European Socialists, who made out the stop austerity but in fact – or so says Merkel – are with her in the negotiations with Greece. Precisely for this Tsipras, the new prime minister, insists that the electoral commitments that Europe wants renegades will instead be respected. “There we will receive more orders by email ‘. The nodes may come to a head the Eurogroup urgently called for 11 February, on the eve of the Council of Heads of State and Government in Brussels, with the ECB which gave practically an ultimatum by cutting direct loans to Greek banks. But the issue of Greece, with the rating agencies that raise the specter of a default, broke through already turkish summit of finance ministers and governors of tomorrow and Tuesday. Although the former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan says that Greece should leave the euro (“it’s only a matter of time”), the risk ‘Grexit’, with its charge of instability that calls into question the progress achieved in Europe with quantitative easing Draghi, not like at all in Washington. The Secretary of the US Treasury Jack Lew, in Istanbul, could assume the role of the parent who takes the ‘children’ Europe asking them greater cooperation on Greece. The White House did not like at all the opening of Moscow to Athens on the financial front. “We will encourage the two sides to find a common path. It is important that Greece and the EU work together, “said a senior US official ahead of the talks of the G20. And even London back to bite, with Finance Minister George Osborne pointing his finger on the stalemate in negotiations with European Athens because of which London is preparing a contingency plan and Istanbul “encourage partners to resolve the crisis”. Mario Draghi, the ECB president, will meet Lew: it is possible that in Istanbul, geographically close but paradoxically distantissima politically from Athens, begin t o tracciarsi the outlines of the strategy to save Greece and the euro to 19. With the background the theme dear to the Use of a revival in global demand.
