Re:Varoufakis reveals cloak and dagger 'Plan B' for Greece, ... by felipeerias on Monday July 27, 2015 @05:04AM (#9954128)
Varoufakis didn't care about his crazy plans destroying the economy, because he only intended to use them as a threat. "Give us what we want or we will crash out of the Euro!"

And then the people on the other side of the table said: "Excellent, go on!"

Not only did the Troika believe that in the end the Greek government would "roll over and give in to their proposals": many EU governments and officials actually preferred the alternative.

The negotiations of the past weeks have shown that not only Greece was bluffing about leaving the Euro, but that other countries would be more than happy to let them leave.
