Greece crisis in my cartoons.<\/p>\n

February 2010<\/strong><\/p>\n

Latvia has experienced the\u00a0worst two-year economic downturn\u00a0on record, losing more than 25% of GDP.\u00a0Greece \u2013 like Latvia and Estonia \u2013 will be at the mercy of external events to rescue its economy. (The Guardian<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\"W10.05.07-2\"<\/a>November\u00a02011<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Greek political crisis paralysing the eurozone and threatening to plunge Europe into prolonged financial meltdown and recession could be resolved on Friday after\u00a0George Papandreou\u00a0indicated he might step down as prime minister even if he wins today’s knife-edge vote of confidence in parliament. (The Guardian<\/a>)\"W11.11.04-1\"<\/a>June 2012<\/strong><\/p>\n

The world had been watching Sunday’s elections in Greece with bated breath, worried that the outcome could\u00a0precipitate a Greek exit\u00a0from the euro zone. Now it looks as if the two mainstream parties that support the bailout deal with the European Union and International Monetary Fund (IMF) may be able to form a government — but Athens isn’t out of the woods yet.

Syriza, the radical leftists who have pledged to roll back austerity and renegotiate Greece\u2019s mammoth debt, swept to a stunning victory in the country\u2019s elections on Sunday \u2013 but looked like falling agonisingly short of an outright majority.\u00a0With more than 90% of the results in, official interior ministry results put Alexis Tsipras\u2019s party on 36%, eight points clear of their chief rivals, the conservative New Democracy of outgoing prime minister Antonis Samaras, on 28%. (The Guardian<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\"Greece<\/a>April 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n

Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras highlighted the importance of his country’s relationship with Russia as he shared the stage with President Vladimir Putin at a key economic summit in St. Petersburg Friday.\u00a0While recriminations flew between Greece and its international creditors over much-needed rescue funds, Tsipras declared at a session at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum that “Russia is one of the most important partners for us,” adding that the indebted country could no longer “carry the burdens of the past”.

If Greece defaults on its debt, it will be the biggest default by a country in history.\u00a0Greece is expected to miss a \u20ac1.5 billion ($1.7 billion) debt payment on Tuesday. That won’t be enough to put it in the record books yet, but it could eventually make Greece default on its entire debt load: \u20ac323 billion ($360 billion).\u00a0This isn’t the first time Greece has been on the brink. Greece already holds the record for the biggest default ever by a country from 2012 when it went into technical default and had to restructure about $138 billion of its debt. Back then, Greece was quickly bailed out by its European peers. That’s unlikely to happen now. (CNN Money<\/a>)
