Kammenos: Greece to seek other means of funding, if talks fail
Defence Minister Panos Kammenos said that Greece will seek other means for funding if negotiations with its lenders are not successful.
Speaking at an Economist conference in Athens, Kammenos said that if "lenders want to smother Greece and to overthrow the  government which is not liked Germany, Greece is left with no option other than to seek other sources of funding."
He also stressed that discussions on the sale of the Port of Piraeus with Chinese Cosco are at an "advanced stage” and he revealed that he will propose the creation of a new NATO air base in the Aegean.
