The extent of the concessions forced on Greece by the Troika
We publish here the latest analysis of the developments in Greece, including an article by Jorge Martin of the International Marxist Tendency, who explains the significance of the Greek government’s retreat in the face of pressure from the Troika, and a recent statement from the Communist Tendency of SYRIZA.
Greece: A Troika by any other name would smell as rotten
On Friday 20th February, the Greek government signed a joint statement with the Eurogroup of Finance Ministers which amounts to an abandonment of the programme on which Syriza won the recent elections on January 25. Jorge Martin (of the International Marxist Tendency) and the Communist Tendency of SYRIZA analyse the details of the deal.
Greece: No more retreats – the government must go on the offensive!
In this latest statement from the Communist Tendency of SYRIZA, the comrades in Greece comment on the retreats by the SYRIZA-led government in the face of pressure from the European capitalists. Only by going on the offensive with a bold socialist programme can the SYRIZA leaders stand up against the austerity and attacs of the Troika.
