Alexis Tsipras interview about all the latest developments after the Greek capitulation with the EFD

globinfo freexchange

The Greek PM, Alexis Tsipras, gave a two-hour interview at the Greek radio station "Sto Kokkino". Will Greece manage to be liberated from the European Financial Dictatorship?

Key points:

We must be proud for giving a fight for six months under cruel conditions, despite that the power correlations were against us. Europe is not the same after 12 July.

The Greek society overpassed both the government and the party.

The referendum was a risk and the probability to lose the referendum was high because creditors imposed financial strangulation, but we had no choice.

Northern governments didn't want to give a single euro to Greece because they had self-trapped in their own policy according to which the "lazy" Greeks take the money. We know that the banks take the money, not the people.

Referendum has been decided the day of the ultimatum. Probably the creditors wanted political developments in Greece.

I informed Merkel and Hollande about the referendum and I asked them to ensure to us the conditions to go calmly in this process. They told me that they will do whatever they can. Merkel told me that she will say that this referendum will be about Greece staying in euro or not. I told her that this is not the issue of the referendum. The conversation ended there.

Now, the European people see that the fight of the Greek people is right.

The result of the negotiations was a Pyrrhic win for the creditors and a painful compromise for us.

I don't regret about what happened the last five months. It was worth it. The elections in Spain are part of the big change in Europe.

We have the ability to escape from the fiscal asphyxiation.

This will be a continuous battle. We will not abandon the battle.

Memorandum is the wrong recipe and will give the fight to surpass it.

We were dragged inside a negotiation which was a continuous wear for us. (admitting it as a big mistake)

Capitalism & Genocide - Yanis Varoufakis Speech at the Gaza Tribunal, 23rd October 2025, Istanbul

Yanis Varoufakis On 23rd October, Yanis Varoufakis testified in front of the Jury of Conscience in the context of the Gaza Tribunal.

Munich Shock: Rubio’s Vision of a New Western Century & World Order

GVS Deep Dive At the 2026 Munich Security Conference, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered one of the most consequential foreign policy speeches of the year. Framed as a call for Western renewal, his address went far beyond NATO reassurance — outlining a vision of sovereignty, industrial consolidation, and civilizational confidence that may signal the end of the post-Cold War global order. Is this the beginning of a Second Cold War? Is the West reorganizing around bloc competition? Or are we witnessing the construction of a new world order?

A response to misinformation on Nicaragua: it was a coup, not a ‘massacre’

There is so much misinformation in mainstream corporate media about recent events in Nicaragua that it is a pity that Mary Ellsberg’s article for Pulse has added to it with a seemingly leftish critique. Ellsberg claims that recent articles, including from this website, often “ paint a picture of the crisis in Nicaragua that is dangerously misleading. ” Unfortunately, her own article does just that. It looks at the situation entirely from the perspective of those opposing Daniel Ortega’s government while whitewashing their malevolent behavior and downplaying the levels of US support they have relied on. Her piece is an incomplete depiction of what is happening on the ground, ignoring many salient facts that have come to light and which have been outdated by recent events. The following is a brief response to Ellsberg’s main points from someone who lives in Nicaragua and has observed the situation directly and intimately: https://grayzoneproject.com/2018/08/15/a-res...

Five reasons a war with Iran will mark the final fall of US empire

globinfo freexchange 1. The nature of war has changed dramatically since the Iraq war, due to technological developments. A ground invasion, especially against Iran, would be catastrophic for the US empire with unpredictable consequences, even if the regime-change mission successfully completed. 2. The Iran allies in the region are still active, despite their losses. This is connected with the first reason in a way because armed groups dispersed in the Middle-East and affiliated with Iran, can lead to an asymmetric, out-of-control conflict to the point where US forces may suddenly find themselves trapped in a wider deadly warzone with no exit. The new, relatively cheap technology of drones and small/middle range missiles, is easily accessible to these groups. The Ansar Allah group in Yemen, already demonstrated their ability to sabotage US military operations. 3. Iran is not Iraq. Not only due to its size and the fact that we live now in a very different period, but also be...
