Varoufakis: “Greece Is Committed To Staying In The Eurozone”

Mr. Varoufakis noted that the intention is not to propose a “zero sum game”, bur rather to demonstrate that everyone comes out at a loss by the way that Europe has been handling the Greek crisis since 2010. The Finance Minister explained that Greece will propose a reform program that will ensure that Greece does not find itself in the situation it was in 2009 and 2010.

Regarding the Eurozone, Mr. Varoufakis stressed that Greece is committed to the Eurozone and pointed out that a potential departure would have major implications on not just Greece, but the Eurozone and global economy. The Minister of Finances underlined that the payment of debt must be associated to the rate of growth and that the official sector must participate in the debt restructure.
