Newsroom February 11 06:36

The quip emanates from the new Greek government’s refusal to cooperate with a team of inspectors assigned by its international lenders to monitor the previous bailout plans.

The powerful German minister also said the program should be completed, while asked about the pending Eurogroup meeting on Wednesday evening, he said:

“It all depends on Mr. (Yanis) Varoufakis and what he brings to the table.”
