Do any of the people downvoting recall what happened recently to all those Greek Euro-denominated government bonds?

well anything can happen. I mean I live in germany and I can totally see that happen. our biggest industry needs a lot of breaking changes or else they will fail pretty hard. and they have less than 30 years to do so
