I think that the behavior of M. Alexis Tsípras is a chance for the European Union to question itself about what is wrong about the Europe of Euro, and to measure the human sufferings caused by a policy that is first and foremost monetarily driven and is wrong. In a just and democratic society, the citizen and his rights are center stage, not the economy. Teddy Crispin
About This Quote

Read this statement as a person who has strong feeling about Tsipras and his behavior. He has even spoken that he is not willing to accept the austerity plan. The fact that Tsipras is not accepting the austerity plan and it is not to be accepted by other countries makes him a person who should be questioned. This kind of policy should be first and foremost monetarily driven and it is wrong because it first and foremost does not take into account the people, their life and their rights.
