Grexit-alternativet ser sannerligen ut att ha fått fäste i delar av det EU-politiska toppskiktet och man mörkar mindre än någonsin. Nyss var det Schäuble (se inlägg #3418 ovan) som gjorde antydningar och i dag vågade t.o.m. en ECB-styrelseledamot, Ewald Nowotny (AUT), tala om det tidigare förbjudna och otänkbara:

Grekiske finansministern Varoufakis har, föga överraskande, en avvikande uppfattning:
Franske kommissionären Pierre Moscovici håller å sin sida fast vid "den europeiska drömmen":

Citat:
When asked on TV, he indicated that he thinks the risks of contagion in the rest of Europe from a Grexit (Greek exit from the eurozone) are manageable ...
"It (a Greek exit) does not have that impact or potential impact on the euro zone as it would have had ... some two year's ago. I really don't see a contagion in the financial and economic sense," adding, however, that he could not predict the "psychological effect" ...
Usually an ECB official would reply to that sort of question by saying that the ECB expects Greece to remain a full member of the eurozone. Any hint that the central bank expects or is even planning for Grexit could spark financial panic ...
Bloomberg TV's Hans Nichols is pretty unequivocal in his reaction: "When a central banker says, as Austrias Ewald Nowotny just did, that contagion from Greece will be *limited*, start looking for old drachmas".

Citat:
... if Greece were to leave the euro zone, there would be an inevitable contagion effect.
"Anyone who toys with the idea of cutting off bits of the euro zone hoping the rest will survive is playing with fire," he told La Sexta, a Spanish TV channel, in an interview recorded 10 days ago.
"Some claim that the rest of Europe has been ring-fenced from Greece and that the ECB has tools at its disposal to amputate Greece, if need be, cauterize the wound and allow the rest of euro zone to carry on."
"I very much doubt that that is the case. Not just because of Greece but for any part of the union," he said ...
"Once the idea enters peoples' minds that monetary union is not forever, speculation begins ... who's next? That question is the solvent of any monetary union. Sooner or later it's going to start raising interest rates, political tensions, capital flight."
