Two days to convince the euro zone to unlock aid, introducing reforms acceptable, and four months to negotiate a new aid program to replace the current one and send home forever the hated Memorandum: the agreement with the Eurogroup Greece earns time but not the confidence of the 18 eurozone partners, who continue to keep a close watch to prevent face missteps. And that Tsipras too much stretch.
Meanwhile, the premier greek Alexis Tsipras celebrates quela for Greece is the end of austerity and calls to Matteo Renzi to thank him for his role in these hours at European level. Yesterday Renzi had talked about the work of “zipper” made by Italy and Pier Carlo Padoan minister.
After the Eurogroup of Friday, distrust still remains very high. It was difficult to reach an agreement, all they had to do their utmost in and out of the meeting: Draghi, Juncker, Dijsselbloem Tsipras and the same, because the situation was too delicate and his finance minister Varoufakis had no mandate enough.
Italy and France have mediated, playing a central role, which led to a “historic success”, as defined by Padoan. But the negotiation was not only on economic issues. Many discussions have served to restore confidence cracked after two EuroGroups where several ministers have lost my temper, and after a European summit where the Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy had come banging his fists on the table, accusing Tsipras wants to change all the rules that Instead Spain, Ireland, Portugal and Cyprus have had to comply.
The German Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble has not forgiven the joke Varoufakis 11 February, when he tried to change the text of the agreement once the German was out of the room. Not surprisingly, the two toughest and most reticent to sign yesterday were just Schaeuble and Spanish De Guindos.
Restoring confidence is not easy, and it’s even harder when you distrust politics. And since no one thinks to give carte blanche to the only government of the European left, the agreement reached does not leave much room for Greece will be monitored step by step in all the decisions he makes, and will not receive a single euro if the measures which will will not be approved by the Eurogroup.
The first stage is Monday, when former Troika should evaluate the first measures that Tsipras wanted to launch as early as Friday, but was unable to avoid irritating the Eurogroup in progress . Must be a list
measures in several areas, and therefore will not be enough those anti-evasion, anti-corruption, or at least will not serve as a cover for the measures of relief to the population that Tsipras
announced.
