[@DerAstrophysikerr]

German here, I want to offer a short version of my view of the crisis here. In short: Greece caused the debt problem by itself, but Germany actively made it worse. In the video, it is sort of indirectly mentioned: Debt to GDP ratio skyrocketed after the crisis began - much of that can be attributed to a shrinking GDP. Easy example: Say a country has a debt-to-GDP of 100%. Then the GDP drops by 25%. This means that the debt-to-GDP ratio is now at 133%. This partially explains the enormous increase in debt. What is the cause of the shrinking GDP? A huge part can be attributed to the economic policies that were implemented at the start of the crisis. Important to note: Germany was pretty much responsible for Greece's economic policies with the implementation of the Troika. To put it bluntly, in these matters, Greece was pretty much a vassal to Germany. And Germany was - and still is - obsessed with economic austerity and a balanced budget. Since Greece was spending a lot, huge cuts were implemented on behalf of Germany's government - many of these were to social services. However, this also meant that people had less money to spend, leading to a downward spiral. Germany is really stupid with regards to economic policies, so much so that I'd say our economy thrives (so far) in spite, not because of our politics. So, Germany actively made the situation in Greece worse. But that's not all. In German newspapers, reports of "us having to save the irresponsible south Europeans and lazy Greeks" was pretty common. It was disgusting on so many levels. I personally am in favor of a debt cut for Greece - also sort of as a payback for a) the Troika and b) WW2 forced loans.

[@axilleas]

That was actually a rather accurate, objective and non prejudiced assessment. I’d like to add that the point when we shot ourselves in the feet is with the “cooked” books that allowed us to enter the monetary union prematurely, something that led directly to a huge rise in goods’ prices and inflation.

[@user-hz2dr8fv5u]

I think that it is nice to here the opinion of a German upon the matter. Thank you so much for your support. I think that the media' s propaganda really effects the way the people of two countries see each other and it causes me disgust as well. I don't think that all Germans are cruel as they are portrayed by the greek media as not all Greeks are lazy. People need to understand that among large masses one can find individuals with different qualities. The people of a nation can't all have just one characteristic.

cant see that happening soon bro , economic interests and nationalism will never let Greece and Turkey cooperate + never in the past greece and turkey helped each other and will never do. In addition to that Greeks are mad angry to turkey for not accepting international treaties and threaten Greece with war if they try to enforce their rights and ofc Greece will never forgive Turkey for genociding Greeks in Smyrna after they denied the Treaty of Sèvres and destroying the greek army for trying to enforce the Treaty that was actually signed by the Sultan but not by Kemal Atatürk who actually illegally stood up against it. Ah and the Turkish invasion on cyprus on 1974 was the final straw. Also Orthodox Greek Church which is fully recognized by the Greek Government got shit mad on what Turks did to Agia Sofia. Nah Greeks will never accept any cooperation with Turkey and neither Turks will. I could actually try to list all the things Turks did to Greeks but that will have me to write a five thousand word essay

@@eatinsomtin9984 it's tough, i'm german-turk so it's good when Turkey takes more control in the region and if Greece is more forced to work together with TR. But Greece is doomed, alot of their money goes into simply keeping the debt at the same rate, because interest rates on 200% debt will obviously make it grow alot. Italy has a similar issue, but not that worse. In an Idealistic world the EU would come together and buy all of Greece's debt or buy it and restructure it so that the interest rates are super low but i guess then Greek Politicians would continue to make dumb decisions.
