Greeks in Despair: Suicide rate record high
Athens has clinched a critical bond-swap deal with private creditors allowing Greece to narrowly escape default, opening the door for a bailout injection. Eurozone members were quick to rejoice what they called a major step to rescuing the debt-ridden country. But the parachute provides little optimism for the Greeks whose financial woes continue to snowball, as Tom Barton reports. RT on Twitter twitter.com RT on Facebook www.facebook.com
'Germans dare Greeks to kickstart Euro exit'
Violent austerity protests have erupted in the Italian city of Naples, after enraged demonstrators attempted to storm a local tax office. Protesters threw paint and rocks at police, who then charged crowds and beat them with batons. The demonstration began after the tax office refused to shut down for a period of mourning in the wake of a man's suicide after a visit by tax collecters. This, as Europe experiences new tensions stemming from a deadlocked government in Greece. Germany, though, is already guarding against any possible fallout, saying the Euro could survive with or without Greece. But financial journalist Peter Bild is sceptical of Berlin's apparent confidence.

Greek Town Develops Bartering System Without Euro
04/12/2012 As Greece wonders whether its debt crisis will eventually spell its exit from the euro, one town in the centre of the country, Volos, has formed an alternative local currency. It works through a bartering system or exchange of goods. LeakSource.wordpress.com
'Enough is Enough!' Spanish & Greeks unite in austerity rage
It's a day of mass protests across the EU, as people rail against austerity, cuts and economic hardships - which they say are not their fault. Fresh demonstration are brewing across Greece - as the government seeks to implement the drastic austerity measures that came with the latest EU bailout. The demonstrations will be synchronous with those in Spain - where people are angry at their own draconian cuts and bleak prospects. RT on Facebook: www.facebook.com RT on Twitter: twitter.com

Matina Stevis on Greek Elections, the Golden Dawn, and the End of an Era
Follow us @ twitter.com twitter.com Welcome to Capital Account. This weekend we saw elections in Europe - the most important occurring in France and Greece. Although the former resulted in the ousting of Nicolas Sarkozy, who has been at the helm in France since the beginning of this crisis, the latter is arguably more important as it has shaken the foundation of EU and IMF-led reforms in the deficit countries. Greece has been the poster child for the Eurozone crisis. Its economy has contracted significantly since the onset of the crisis, miring it in a deep depressionthat has resulted in untold hardship for a great mass of the people, violent riots, and intense anxiety about the future of the country. The party that has presided over the country from the onset of this economic and social depression has been PASOK, whose leadership has chosen to negotiate with the country's creditors, the IMF and the EU, rather than unilaterally default and exit the single currency union that is the Euro. This has become an increasingly unpopular stance in Greece, as the terms of both bailouts negotiated with its creditors have widely been seen as detrimental to the country's economic and political future, deflating the domestic economy and replacing the country's former prime minister with a technocrat and former central banker. Throughout this entire process, the country's leaders have avoided calls for new elections amidst popular anger directed increasingly at the 300 members of Greek ...
Debt End: 'Greeks at the cliff'
Greek party leaders have sent written commitments to Brussels saying they will stick to the agreed austerity measures even after the general elections in April. There are still EU demands Athens failed to fulfill, which led to the cancellation of a key meeting of Eurozone finance ministers. Greece is still struggling to secure the second bailout from its international creditors, without which it's due to default next month. For more on that RT talks to Marshall Auerback, a portfolio strategist and hedge fund manager. RT on Twitter twitter.com RT on Facebook www.facebook.com
'Greeks forced into corner, made to chose Euro'
EU leaders gather for an informal dinner in Brussels, but the main course will undoubtedly be the Eurozone's crippling debt crisis. There's a growing belief that the austerity driver heralded by France and Germany has backfired, sending weaker countries into a spiral of decline. Reports say single currency member nations are preparing back up plans for the consequences of a Greek exit. France's President Hollande wants the strategy to shift to growth - something Germany's reluctant to agree with. Both sides have to search for a compromise ahead of what could be a decisive 2nd Greek election in June. John Laughland, the Director of Studies in the Institute of Democracy and Cooperation, believes the EU tries to control Greece by giving it no other choise but austerity.

Financial Fascism? 'Greeks should revolt against debt slavery!'
It's been a tough night in Brussels where Eurozone ministers have reached a deal on a second bailout for Greece. It took them several hours to agree on the one-hundred-and-thirty-billion euro cash injection, expected to save the country from default. Earlier the Greek Parliament went through a storm of public outrage and several internal conflicts to approve the austerity measures demanded by international creditors.

Greek Cuts Drama: Healthcare doomed, army booms

Second Greek bailout a charade?
On Tuesday, the Eurozone finance ministers settled on a 130-billion-euro bailout for Greece. According to reports, the bailout was necessary to avert a default and the move comes after the Greek government cut thousands of public jobs which lead to many angry Greeks taking to the streets in protest. The deal is supposed to cut Greece's debt to GDP to 120.5 percent by 2020 which many critics are saying is pointless. Here is the latest on the Greek bailout.

Disaster in the Making: 'IMF recipe leads Greeks to starvation'
Greek politicians' last minute agreement on fresh austerity plans hasn't exactly been greeted with open arms. A 48-hour strike has been called by the country's two major labour unions.

The journalist Stylianos Chrysostomidis says the situation in the country is deteriorating and the consequences could be dangerous.

Golden Dawn Greek Ultra-nationalists celebrate parliamentary first χρυση αυγη
The ultra nationalist far right party Golden Dawn supporters celebrated on Sunday after exit polls showed them winning between 5 to 7 per cent of the vote, enough for them to gain representation in parliament for the first time in Greek history. Golden Dawn Leader, Nikolaos Michaloliakos shouted "The Europe of the nations returns, Greece is only the beginning" as he walked towards party headquaters and pledged to deal with illegal immigrants first. Supporters clapped and chanted party slogan "Greece belongs to Greeks". Golden Dawn, an extreme right nationalist party with patriotic symbolism and an anti-immigrant stance, has tapped into nationalist sentiment rising in the country after the strict European Union/IMF-imposed bailout terms helped plunge Greece into economic turmoil. The party's gain in popularity is seen as an indication of the extent of public anger, as polls showed it taking an unprecedented 6-8 per cent of the vote. Under the country's proportional representation system this would allow an extreme right party to enter parliament for the first time since the fall of a military dictatorship in 1974, with around 20 or so seats out of 300. "The resistance of Golden Dawn against the bailout dictators will continue. Inside and outside the Greek parliament. We will continue the battle for Greece. Free from the international speculators. For a proud and independent Greece. For Greece without the bailout slavery and the loss of our national sovereignty," said ...
Greek Battlefield: Video of Athens clashes with police
Greek anger over new austerity measures and layoffs erupted into violence outside parliament on Wednesday, as demonstrators hurled chunks of marble and gasoline bombs and riot police responded with tear gas and stun grenades that echoed across Athens' main square. Police said at least 14 officers were hospitalised with injuries, and at least three journalists covering the demonstrations sustained minor injuries. The violence spread across the city centre, as at least 100-thousand people marched through the Greek capital on the first day of a two-day general strike that unions described as the largest protest in years. Most of the protesters marched peacefully, but crowds outside of parliament clashed with police who tried to disperse them with repeated rounds of tear gas. Hundreds of rioting youths smashed and looted stores in central Athens on Wednesday after the mass anti-government rally against the new painful austerity measures. Police and rioters held running battles through the narrow streets of central Athens, as thick black smoke from burning rubbish and bus-stops set ablaze filled the city's skyline and obscured its ancient monuments. A gasoline bomb set fire to a presidential guard sentry post at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier outside Parliament, while running clashes broke out in several side streets near the legislature and the capital's main Syntagma Square. Nearby, groups of hooded, masked protesters tore chunks of marble off building fronts with hammers ...

Tens of thousands of Greeks protest in violent clash over debt plan

The clashes erupted at around 6 pm local time as at least 25000 people streamed into Syntagma Square facing Parliament. Several banks and shops in the center of the city are on fire, a spokesman for the national fire protection service said. Riot police fired tear gas at protesters, RIA Novosti correspondent said.

Greece needs the funds before March 20 to meet debt repayments of 14.5 billion euros.
