Greece will have to leave the eurozone if it fails to clinch a deal on a second, 130 billion euro bailout with its international lenders, a government spokesman said on Tuesday.
It was an unusually public stark warning from the embattled country, aimed at shoring up domestic support for tough measures and possibly also at the lenders themselves.
“The bailout agreement needs to be signed otherwise we will be out of the markets, out of the euro,” Kapsis told Skai TV, according to Reuters. “The situation will be much worse.”
“The next three to fourth months are the most crucial and that is the reason this government exists,” Kapsis said.
Referring to the issue with the two economic prosecutors, Kapsis stressed that the government΄s position remains that “all issues will be brought to light”, while now there is a question of justice and prosecutors should explain their stance. “If there are accusations, they must be brought to light.”
