IMF Chief Christine Lagarde said some form of debt relief would be possible for Greece.
The European tyrants are crippling the people of Greece and trying to bring them to their knees. Old people are fainting in the streets
waiting hours in line in the sun for the banks to open and get a small part of their pension for food and medicine. My heart breaks to see
how many have turned to food banks to survive or just give up and commit suicide.

Greece should ignore the nonsense proposal by creditors and have confidence in the final victory. Greece never dies!
Neither Greece, nor Germany or the European Central bank want to see a default. Such an event would also have catastrophic effects for the
other debt-ridden countries like Spain, Portugal, and Italy.

Do you think Greece will default?
Greece has survived many obstacles during its glorious past and I am confident that once again, this issue will be resolved. Greece will come
out of this crisis a winner and once again be placed in the history books. I suspect that these problems will not go away in a day or two,
but the Greek people are very resilient, and they'll come out stronger and better for it. Greece will be a country more beautiful and greater than ever,
setting an example for all the free nations of the world. GREECE NEVER DIES!
