The geopolitical Greece deserves far more than Portugal or Ireland

Wall Street Journal



"H Greece may be a small European economy, but, as illustrated by the story, the geopolitical importance is greater than that of Ireland or Portugal. Yet the sharp contraction in the Greek economy poses risks to overthrow the constitution by extremist political or military movements, with undetermined consequences. "

Put simply, the Wall Street Journal described the big guns that could use a Greece-centric and not "European" or "globalized" thinking Greek political leadership to give answers to those who believe that the country and its people must first suffer to "cleanse" (Calvinist-evangelical conception Merkel) and then come "the straight path", having paid for their sins.

Under commonly called Greece is "corner-shop" in an area such "stores" are paid chiliaplasia amounts than the debt. And just the fact that the Greek political leaders refuse to use this weapon, fearing lest "feelin gbad" major western political centers, and anyway owes its existence to the domestic political elite - assisted of course by major domestic large SMEs play the role of "watchdog" Troika - reserving the Greek people a real hell.

The Wall Street Journal, the article sets out its thinking on the future of Europe due to the debt crisis by making the assessment that "the recession plaguing Europe threatens to dissolve the Union."

Even if it manages to survive, as noted, "the influence of the world will fall", says the report excerpt of the French Foundation for Strategic Research, signed by François Heisbourg, who sees four scenarios for the future strategic Europe:

a) perpetuation of the current turbulent situation.

b) Creating a more integrated EU

c) Split the Eurozone, removing countries such as Greece.

d) Complete collapse of the Eurozone.

All possible leads to a change in the strategic field in Europe.

Regarding the third scenario for Greece, stated that poses risks both to the possibility of transmission of the financial crisis in other countries and geostrategic, as "not all countries have the same geostrategic significance."

Finally, it can be argued that a split is also the Eurozone will affect the process of EU enlargement in the Balkans, with the possible exception of Croatia, further destabilizing the region and undermining energy security, would pave the way to other forces, such as Russia and China to expand its influence in the region (Russian influence in Cyprus is already significant).

It is exactly the same attitude as that of proerdou of the German Association for Foreign Trade, Anton Berners, who warned that if the country entered the Eurozone, then "will be removed in practice by the European Union" and would "fall into the arms of Russia or China, causing a security problem for Europe. "

According to the version described by Mr. Berners had revealed and brought to the first publicity in Greece defencenet.gr the case of Greece leaving the eurozone and create a closer relationship with Russia or China, "Greece would obtain large Earnings and Europe would become a security problem, and for many decades! "

To question now is why wait what they will do or what will decide lenders for us not decide what to do and why we do not get our hands the fate of the nation and to chart a new course?
