  • Banks Are Responsible for the Economic and Social Crisis in Greece
    Banks are Responsible for the Economic and Social Crisis in Greece By Eric Toussaint Region: Europe Global Research, January 09, 2017 Theme: Global Economy, Poverty & Social Coalition for the Abolition of Illegitimacy Inequality Debt 9 January 2017 The present study shows that the Greek crisis that broke out in 2010 originated in private banks, not in excessive public spending. The so-called bail-out was designed to serve the interests of private bankers and those of dominant countries in the Eurozone. Greece adopting the euro played a major role among the various factors that contributed to the crisis. The analysis developed here was first presented in Athens on 6 November 2016 during a meeting of the Truth Committee on Greek Public Debt.
