Syriza MP slams eurozone deal
Syriza MP Dimitris Papadimoulis on Thursday slammed a eurozone deal on Greek debt warning against the impact on the debt-wrecked country’s sovereignty.
?Greece will be governed by its lenders,? Papadimoulis said in an interview with Skai television on Thursday.
After more than eight hours of hard-nosed negotiations, Eurozone leaders struck a deal with private banks and insurers on Thursday for them to accept a 50 percent loss on their Greek government bonds under a plan to lower Greece’s debt burden and try to contain the eurozone crisis.
Papadimoulis of the left-wing Syriza party, one of the most outspoken critics of the government’s austerity measures, said the deal will be followed by a new round of wage and pension cuts.
