Angela Merkel: “We want to make sure nobody else will want the Memorandum”
According to Wall Street Journal, German Chancellor Angela Merkel admitted that the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was intentionally so hard.
When George Papandreou, the former Greek premier who negotiated the original bailout (2010) he asked Angela Merkel for gentler conditions in the memorandum. Angela Merkel replied that the aid program must be very hard (!): "We want to make sure nobody else will want this..." she said.

Wolfgang Schauble: “Greece will respect the commitments otherwise there will be consequences!”
According to "The Guardian" website, the German Minister of Finance declared that the results of this weekend's Greek and French elections "will not have, in essence, any impact on German financial policies".
Schäuble also rebuffed the idea that the winner(s) of the Greek general election could seek to change the terms of its financial aid package. Greece must respect the commitments made, he said, or else "it will have to bear the consequences"...
Moreover, the German politician added that "being a member of the EU is entirely voluntary..."
This is a direct message to the Greek people just a few days before the elections...
Maybe it would be simpler if the Greek elections were held in Germany.. or if the German politicians directly appoint the next Greek government! It could save us a lot of money...
