Responding to the European Central Bank’s move against Greece, Left Unity’s Salman Shaheen said:
“In refusing to accept Greek government bonds as collateral for lending to commercial banks, the ECB is training its big guns on a defiant Greece.
“This is not just an economic move, it is a political one, aimed at bullying a Greek government that no longer wants to be constrained by the straightjacket of EU-imposed austerity.
“We stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Greece as it shows us an alternative. Let Greece breathe!”
