I went to the college cafeteria to buy a cup of coffee where I spotted a group of students sitting around a circular table having a very lively confabulation.

There are rumours of Russians wanting to provide aid to Greece. But I wonder if that is true as Russia is already facing a recession.

“ So initially we were at the Greece budget deficit figures in 2009” she said as soon as she hung up the phone.

I was glad that she was highly keen. “ And this is when the ‘Greek-government debt crisis hit’. [A little fact: It was the first crisis to be added to the list of European debt crisis and also Greece is the first developed country to fail to make a loan repayment to IMF]. ” I replied.

I further continued “ The debt figures are €317 billion with the amount being majorly owed to IMF,ECB and EU.

What’s Up With Greece?(Part-1)

Recently, a lot about Greece crisis, Greece bailout, Greece Referendum has been flooding the news headlines. So when I went to meet my friend at our 'adda' or I would say our favourite coffee shop she popped up with this question "What’s up with Greece?" a moment after she read on her cell phone 'Greeks overwhelmingly vote ‘no’ in rejection of austerity’ while surfing through the news. To which I replied "A lot much lately".

"Could you elaborate?" she asked. So, I began.
