Yanis Varoufakis: The Greek Gauntlet

Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou took the Eurozone crisis to even greater heights last week in announcing a parliamentary vote of confidence in his government. As the European bailout plan hangs in the balance, where is Greece headed? Economist Yanis Varoufakis sits down with Steve Paikin to discuss the evolving economic order in Europe and America.

Excellent interview, and his ending comments were profound.

Wow, this situation is terrible on so many levels but it's good to hear someone talking hard choices and what happens next.

such a childish explanation about papandreou's actions... that is my only arguement

My comment on the video is the Boomerang book. Read it, it describes some amazing situations not only in Greece but all the PIGS and will sure open your eyes about what is going on in these countries.

yianni isnt heartless enough to be a politician, hes also too logical

@Ravefox The problem is that Greece did not buy tanks or frigates. Varoufakis may be excellent in economics but he is not that good in geopolitics and defence issues.
