An emblematic victim of the euro crisis, Greece has paid a hard price for the accumulation of small mistakes and severe wrongdoings over the last decades – some of its own, some foreign.
The Greek people, strangled by austerity, massive unemployment and rising poverty, have lost control over their own destiny. This massive injustice is being exploited by radical factions who prefer scapegoating vulnerable groups to finding real, sustainable solutions for a better future.
