At 48 hours the now probable Greek default and so its exit from the euro, the Greek Parliament approved the request of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras to hold a referendum next Sunday on July 5 to get the endorsement popular to reject the last offer made by the creditors, the EU-ECB-IMF and ESM. The vote came during a night sitting of the meeting called on the day of the breakdown of negotiations in Brussels on the new conditions that international lenders would like to impose on the country in exchange for a new aid plan.

“Nothing insults and ultimatums”

Tsipras had closed the debate before the assembly by asking his compatriots to vote “no” in the referendum on Sunday to reject what he called “insults” received from creditors. “The moment of truth has come for them, the moment when they see that Greece will not give up, that Greece is not a game where you can put an end. I am sure that the people will rise to the greek historical circumstances and outputs a loud no ultimatum. ” “We did not want to accept the slow death of the Greek economy – said the head of the Greek government in his address -. In any case our desire to find a viable solution will always be on the table. Greece is not just a tourist in the EU, is a member with the same dignity and the same rights of others. “

The first survey

L ‘appeal of Tsipras, however, could not be implemented by the Greek citizens: a first poll on voting intentions made by the company Alco opinion poll shows that in fact the majority of the population would be in favor of a new plan in order to continue to have restrictions in return economic aid. Yes I have credited 57% of the vote, against 29% no, while the rest are undecided.
