Greece's Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis at the Finance Ministry after the referendum overwhelmingly rejects creditors' demands for more austerity, July 5, 2015. Angelos Christofilopoulos/Press Association. All rights reserved.Dear Yanis Varoufakis,
While in your article “the European Left after Brexit”, published on the 5 September on Mediapart, you set yourself apart from the positions of supporters of Lexit such as Tariq Ali, Stathis Kouvelakis, Vincenc Navarro and Stefano Fassina, you seem to align on certain political positions supporting an alternative to the neo-liberalism as desired by many left wing forces in France, Greece and in other countries. Therefore we can only approve of your call to disobey the EU.
Considering your article was presented essentially as a rebuttal of arguments of the supporters of Lexit, we wanted to contribute to the debate by submitting to you some reflections and in posing some questions concerning four subjects crucial for the construction of an alternative in Europe: democracy, debt, banks and currency.
