A Greek
government insider lifts the lid on five months of 'humiliation' and
'blackmail'

website reveals key details of the supposed 'negotiations' between
Greece and its creditors which prove what we say a long time ago
through this blog: that eurozone has been transformed into a
financial dictatorship!
Now that the
bureaufascists exposed, it is clear that they don't want any
agreement with the Leftist government in Greece. Greece should leave
euro with its terms, write-off debt, nationalize the banking system
and return to national currency. Otherwise, the bureaufascists will
keep coming, demanding more blood until to destroy completely the
Greek economy.

Of
course, even to discuss Grexit is illegal since there is no legal
provision in the Treaties to do that. […] There is no safeguard
that a Grexit can happen in an orderly, negotiated, peaceful
manner instead of disorderly, with people running to the
foodstores. If you don't have a process of exit from the euro,
then exit is a weapon of mass destruction. If you threaten someone
with Grexit, you push him to the limit of the banking system's
ability to withstand pressure. Then you destroy the banking system
quickly and then you start from scratch to create new currency,
which takes months to form.
The funny
thing is that in early 2014, the European Parliament and all of
them started attacking the Troika, with statements that it is
illegal, unaccountable, is following measures that are destroying
human rights, labour rights. Of course, we had a [conservative]
government that didn't want to hear about this, because it wanted
to attack the opposition and not the creditors. It failed to see
that this was the greatest weapon we had.
For the
weak side, there are only two methods. One is the law – an
appeal for legitimacy - and the other is an appeal for the truth -
who is right and who is wrong in the arguments, and in terms of
human rights. Under the law, everybody is equal. […] So, if you
appeal to the European Court of Justice and say "I am not
treated equally as a member of the EU, NATO” et cetera, they
won't be able to dismiss it. Especially if you have a fair period
of time to make your case.
If you go
through the legal route – and I'm not saying to do that - you
must aim [to establish the creditor institutions’] political
delegitimisation. Let the whole world know the eurozone is
committing a crime against humanity. Prove it in ten years, I
don't mind. But you make a case for the courts to say "until
we examine the case, these measures must stop".
Today
it's too late. It is a matter of political and ideological
hegemony. Varoufakis alone, with his appeal and arguments, managed
to turn public opinion in Europe, even in Germany. The Eurogroup
people stood back. In the beginning of February, [Dutch finance
minister and Eurogroup president Jeroen] Dijsselbloem told
Varoufakis "You either sign the memorandum that the others
have signed too, or your economy is going to collapse”. How? “We
are going to collapse your banks". He had said that. In
his last interview to ERT, the national [Greek public] TV
[channel], two days ago, Varoufakis said: "I didn't denounce
that then, because I was hoping that reason would prevail in the
negotiations with all of the Eurogroup". So he went on with
the numerous agreements. And credibility as well as money was
lost.
[…] The
Eurogroup is not a proper democratically-functioning body. They
[the Greek government of Alexis Tsipras] discovered that, again,
very late, when they [the Eurogroup] wanted to throw Varoufakis
out after the referendum announcement. Which was basically a
gesture to humiliate. Varoufakis says "Who decides that?"
Dijsselbloem says "I decide". Shouldn't there be a vote,
shouldn't there be unanimity? Yes but it's not necessarily
recorded, there are no minutes taken. He was taping, others too.
Why? Because there are no minutes taken. So there is nothing
formal.
The other
countries in such a set-up had to think [German finance minister
Wolfgang] Schäuble is the king, he controls the others, he can
raise his voice and say “no". Varoufakis has described
incidents that show really how the Eurozone is completely
undemocratic, an almost neo-fascist euro dictatorship. You
cannot rely on what the others are saying. Varoufakis says that if
he could negotiate with one at a time for an hour, the deal would
be struck in a day. But you can't do that because each one has
different priorities and different people telling him “no”.
You
cannot argue too much with Schäuble. It would be dangerous,
because you won't get finance, German banks will want their money
back, and so on. So it’s a institution where you cannot make
your voice heard, so what's the point in encountering [them]?
There was no-one else but Varoufakis talking straight. Schäuble
has said "How much money do you want [in order] to leave the
euro?" He doesn't want Greece in the euro at all. He was the
first to raise the issue of a Grexit back in 2011.
We went
to a war thinking we had the same weapons as them. We have
underestimated their power […] It's a power that enters the
very fabric of society, the way people think. It controls and
blackmails. We have very few levers. The European edifice is
already Kafkaesque.

We have
warned Alexis Tsipras that he should not trust these euro-hyenas,
through this blog: Alexis,
you can't trust the euro-hyenas!
This is
another evidence for the European people in order to take action and
resist against this dictatorship, following the example of Greeks who
voted against catastrophic measures, blackmails and threats through
the recent referendum.
