A political upheaval has started in Athens after the creditors’ demand from the Greek opposition to back the economic measures after 2019 elections.

The package with explosives sent to German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble on Wednesday was sent from the region of Attica and cited as its sender New Democracy Vice-President Adonis Georgiadis, according to the Citizens Protection Ministry. 

German finance minister Wolfgang Schaeuble in a statement  just before the upcoming Euroworking Group ruled out the possibility of a haircut of the Greek debt. He underscored that something like this would be a violation of the Lisbon Treaty. As he said, something like that could take place only if Greece was not inside the Eurozone.
