The consequences of the plan greek
Greece
tries to start again, albeit slowly, after weeks of closure of banks,
the referendum and the difficult compliance with the new conditions
imposed by Berlin. In
exchange for the financing of 86 billion euro, which will take place in
three years, there are harsh measures authorities and restructuring
measures in the Greek economy, considered much heavier than those
studied before the referendum. Tsipras
emerges as a leader who has risked so much and has basically lost the
game with Brussels, weakening, apparently his position inside the
country greek. But
this is a feeling that is belied by the polls, that accredit the party
of Prime Minister 40% of the vote, which would mean an absolute
majority. This
is the situation of the weather at the time, but in the case of
elections, possibly in the fall, will be critical to note whether the
government will be able to make appreciable progress in the condition of
the population. For now Tsipras seems to have taken a more responsible, accepting the plan of aid proposed by Europe. This
is certainly a plan that can not create an increase in the gross
domestic product, as required for the country to overcome the crisis,
but, rather, another attempt to recover time. The
intentions of the greek prime minister have never been ones to exit the
European single currency, but to set, on a new basis, the relationship
with Brussels, opening a path that would allow broad derogations to the
rigidity of the budget sought by Germany. Tsipras
believed power practice this way because he hoped for a firm support of
several European countries, but has been virtually abandoned by the
majority of members of the Union, except for France, Italy and Cyprus:
too little to hope to undermine the influence German. The failure of this project creates legacies that still does not seem quite thoroughly investigated. First,
the anti-German sentiment in different parts of the European countries
is a huge factor in growth, even in the country that have supported the
German line in negotiations with Athens. This
aspect, which is found in similar amounts in the anti-European and in
favor of a Europe set in a different way, is likely to weld different
political tendencies, and even contrary, and lead to the election
results completely adverse to the euro and the EU works with rules designed and implemented only from Berlin. Without
a change of German, that does not seem possible at the time, the
European Union itself seems increasingly fragile and held together
artificially. A
direct consequence of humiliation of Greece was, even if only at the
diplomatic level, having imposed on France an almost total defeat, which
it clearly undermines the relationship between Paris and Berlin. It
is a scenario which has become, despite denials and speeches of
circumstance, which is an element of further weakening the European
institution. If
the two major countries of the single currency collide, will be
affected in all future decisions, which are subject to delays and
discussions harmful to the balance of Brussels. There
is, then, the question of the opportunity lost to be able to revive the
continental economies with the introduction of policies that will stop
the hard budget constraints and invest in growth. The
agreement greek says clearly that there is this possibility, it may be,
at least in the medium term, condemning asphyxiated European economies
to be still deprived of an adequate level of investment needed to create
jobs and prosperity. All
these factors combined with the chronic lack of solidarity, will then
be considered in an appropriate way at the time of the possible winning
of political groups opposed to this approach, which will only ask of
these developments. Meanwhile Greece, despite having received aid, has averted expulsion from the euro, which will always occur at any time. Without
an adequate restructuring of its public debt, Athens can not implement
the decisions necessary to grow financially, because spasmodically
committed to repayments inadequately dilated over time. It
is a situation that had already occurred during the previous aid
schemes and that every time the condition has aggravated the debt of
Greece. This,
which is nothing but an aggressive, flag as the conditions imposed
could have as its aim to make the country fail to impose its exit from
the euro. The
German Chancellor has already said that the cut debt greek can not take
place within the monetary union, but that may be sought by alternative
measures, such as the deferral of repayments and conditions more
favorable interest rates. Again
elements that can support the claim that the European Commission had
already drawn up a plan to exit from the eurozone, a prelude to
expulsion from the Treaty of free movement and probably the European
Union itself, decisions thwarted by discreet American intervention,
definitely Contrary to this hypothesis, the political implications that could develop.
