SYRIZA leader Alexis Tsipras on Monday urged the government to reject the austerity measures being demanded by its troika of lenders as they would ensure Greece’s exit from the eurozone and would “write the last chapter” in the country’s history under the loan agreement, or memorandum.
Speaking to the leftists party’s MPs, Tsipras referred to articles in the international media over the weekend suggesting that loans to Greece could be stopped and called on the leaders of the three parties in the governing coalition to demand an immediate European Union summit “where they will look with the other leaders for a new strategic plan to tackle the Greek situation.”
