Greeks only on Saturday from banks paid out approximately one billion euros. On Sunday evening, dramatically lengthening queues at ATMs, and many lacked any money. The Greek authorities have decided last night on the temporary closure of bank branches and reducing transfers, including abroad. On a holiday to Greece have to go with euros in their pockets.

The Government of Alexis Tsipras rejected the latest offer of the eurozone and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) – 15 billion euros aid credits to November in exchange for another painful reforms and budget cuts. Athens Brussels totally surprised by the decision to Greeks on Sunday decided in a referendum, whether they are for or against this offer. – We urge people to vote “no.” Proposals lenders are offensive to us! – Announced Prime Minister Tsipras. The referendum presented as a “yes or no” to the draconian budgetary discipline. – It will be a choice of “euro or drachma” – had to explain Chancellor Angela Merkel.

– If the eurozone and the IMF improve its offer, our government will begin to call for a vote to “yes” – said Greek Finance Minister Janis Warufakis . But this gimmick did not work out quite the negotiation. The Eurogroup, which the finance ministers of euro zone countries Warufakisa rejected the request for an extension of the current aid program for four weeks. This would allow Tsiprasowi make it to a referendum without the risk of a crash.

– The bailout for Greece will expire as scheduled, ie on Tuesday. It’s a sad day – said head of the Eurogroup Jeroen Dijsselbloem. Then the 18 eurozone finance ministers, has no Greek, naradzało to the “stability of the euro area”. This is a foretaste of a Greek exit from the euro zone. – Greece commits suicide. Millimeters divide it from the collapse of the financial system – commented Herman Van Rompuy, Donald Tusk’s predecessor at the head of the European Council.

Athens do not have the money to Tuesday to pay 1.5 billion euro installment of the IMF, which in turn will facing a huge dilemma European Central Bank (ECB). It now supports the ad hoc Greek banks loans, taking as collateral mainly Greek government bonds. Except that securities less Solvent Greece are getting less valuable.

Therefore, the ECB yesterday refused to increase the limit lending to Greek banks (about 89 billion), which means that they will have these days nightmarish problems finding cash for panicky customers wishing to withdraw contributions. And if Greece fails to repay the debt installment on Tuesday, the Governing Council of the ECB will most likely vote, or not to reduce the assistance limit, what would some banks threatened with bankruptcy.

The Greek government had already convened a similar referendum (in 2011)., but it did not happen, and the originator of the then Prime Minister George Papandreou, quickly lost his post. In Brussels, even today, do not go out hope for the surrender of Tsipras.

Polls suggest that the majority of Greeks opowiedziałaby in a referendum – against Tsiprasowi – with the consent of the demands of the eurozone and the IMF.

– Democratic Europe must allow the Greeks to decide about the future. It should extend an aid program for the referendum – calls Zsolt Darvas, an expert center Brue-gel. Even Berlin in May spoke positively about the idea of ​​a referendum. But the arrogance of Greek negotiators and ad referendum at the last minute napsuły so much blood in Brussels that it is unclear whether even after his positive result will provide opportunities for new and successful negotiations with Athens.
