I guess everyone knew he would cave soon enough.
But it did look like, for a minute there, he was considering going full BRICS.
Greece’s leftwing government expressed confidence on Tuesday that parliament would approve a debt deal with lenders, despite an angry reaction from some of its own lawmakers who accused it of caving in to pressure for more austerity.
Concessions offered by Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, including hikes to tax and pension contributions, garnered a cautious welcome from euro zone leaders but triggered a furious reaction from some leftists in the ruling Syriza party.
One lawmaker said the deal was tantamount to a “tombstone” for Greece, after repeated rounds of austerity during five years of crisis.
Deputy parliament speaker and Syriza lawmaker Alexis Mitropoulos said the concessions were “not in line with the principles of the left” and would cause “social carnage”.
“I believe that this programme as we see it … is difficult to pass by us,” he told Greek Mega TV.
However State Minister Nikos Pappas, one of Tsipras’ closest aides, said he was confident that the deal would get through.
“I assure you that the deal will be such that it will win the backing of the government majority and of the Greek people,” Pappas told Mega TV.”
The lesson here is to never trust a communist. A lesson you would have thought most people in the world would have already learned by now. These people have not generally been particularly honest or straightforward, thus far.
Anyway. Good news for the Golden Dawn, the last party standing.
