Just over an hour ago, what appears to have been a strawman now was issued by Bloomberg via leaked sources from Greek and German officials that proclaimed talk of a “compromise” deal that makes everyone happy in Europe. However, as the leaders exited today’s summit, the tone of their responses did not exactly sound compromise-prone:
*DIJSSELBLOEM SAYS GREECE PROCESS GOING TO BE V. DIFFICULT, “DON’T GET YOUR HOPES UP YET” ON GREECE
*MERKEL URGES GREECE TO MAKE UP ITS MIND SOON ON FINANCING
Hardly the resoundingly positive spin we saw earlier. Poland’s Tusk, Finland’s Stubb, and good old Juncker also chimed in with the latter commenting on Greece’s “anti-social” behavior. Tsipras made some neutral statements, then came out swinging, “The MoU as we knew it is over. The same goes for the troika. All these years, the burden fell on the poorest. Our aim is to restore the sense of justice.”
