Following the announcement of ECB’s stress test results for the four systemic Greek banks, the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) issued the following statement:

“The government is celebrating the recapitalization of banks, concealing the fact that this was made possible by mortgaging permanently the rights of the people. The transition to a different financing framework based on the permanent supervisory mechanisms of the EU will only mean for the people the continuation of the same unpopular policy”.
