via Greece’s eurozone future uncertain as Germany steps up pressure – FT.com.
The pressure is now mounting on Greece. It’s a bit like unconditional surrender, in my view. But the alternative of a Grexit or a temporary exit have still not been properly risked assessed. If Greece does not get a financial lifeline, expect a massive humanitarian initiative
It’s easy to say that Greece precipitated the current impasse but this point in negotiations was probably inevitable. Ultimately, the Euro is the fundamental weakness & expect speculators to apply pressure this week.
