Gordian Knot

British Prime Minister Theresa May, her counterparts from the other 27 European Union member-states and the presidents of EU institutions have been discussing the "political" aspects of Brexit since Thursday.

The fact that the International Monetary Fund and the European Central Bank reached a compromise on the issue of Greek lenders is an extremely positive development.

Aris Velouchiotis and Apivita are worlds apart. The Second World War Greek resistance fighter and the natural cosmetics company are simply two very different brands. The former belongs to a dark past that we are trying to finally put behind us, while the latter represents a brighter future for crisis-wracked Greece.

Addressing the presentation of the Act4Greece Program of the National Bank of Greece at Mela Mansion, Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras stressed the need for timely completion of the first evaluation of the Greek project, “in order to untie the Gordian knot, which is the debt relief.”
