SYRIZA responds to the government’s claims that the opposition party is maliciously speculating. On the short-term borrowing needs for the country -bonds that expire in March and April- and deposits and liquidity of the banking system.

SYRIZA, in its non-paper states:

“Like all countries, Greece is able to acquire short-term liquidity through various tools. These tools were used by the government, bringing yearly borrowing up to 120 billion, without making any sort of announcement. It is inconceivable that the Finance Ministry doubts this ability after months of reassurances that the Greek economy is stable once more and after months of presenting surpluses that will satisfy debt needs.
