Azor Ahai 18,861 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 https://euobserver.com/foreign/127393 #OrthodoxAlliance xD The new far-left government in Greece dropped a bombshell on its first day in office by abjuring an EU statement on Russia. It said in a press release on Tuesday (27 January): “the aforementioned statement was released without the prescribed procedure to obtain consent by the member states and particularly without ensuring the consent of Greeceâ€. “In this context, it is underlined that Greece does not consent to this statementâ€. It added that its new PM, Alexis Tsipras, expressed “discontent†in a phone call to EU foreign relations chief Federica Mogherini. The EU statement on Russia, published on Tuesday morning, claimed all 28 leaders had agreed Russia bears “responsibility†for a rocket attack on the Ukrainian city of Mariupol, which killed 30 people. It also called on foreign ministers later this week to “consider any appropriate action†- further sanctions on Russia. It was drafted by the cabinet of EU Council chief Donald Tusk, a Russia-critical Pole, on Monday evening. His people say he phoned Tsipras while they contacted all the capitals' “sherpas†- senior officials dealing with EU issues in each leaders’ private office. They also say no one on the Greek side voiced objections until Monday morning. They then suggested adding a footnote to the statement, but “as Greece did not want such a footnote, it was clear to us that we could publish the statement as agreed in the eveningâ€. For its part, the Greek embassy to the EU is playing down the fiasco as some kind of confusion linked to the hand-over of power in Athens. President Vladimir Putin is cultivating the new government in Athens as an ally within the EU, wishing Tsipras success in “difficult conditions†in a congratulatory telegram after Sunday’s election. But one EU diplomat told this website Greece had tried to remove the line blaming Russia for the Mariupol killing. He said Austria, Hungary, and Slovakia also tried, and failed, to “water down†the communique. Meanwhile, an EU Council official said the situation - a retroactive abjuration of an EU line - has “never happened beforeâ€. “I guess this means it’s now a statement of 27 EU heads of state or government instead of 28 and we will have to add the footnoteâ€, he said. “But it’s not a legally binding document anyway, so it doesn’t become invalid in that sense†This move was taken by our brand new Prime Minister Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Much logic. Very economics. Many relationship. Such politician. Wow. Well, it's up to you, Greece. If you really wanna be d--gged and ass-raped by Russia afterwards through your every single hole (by saying "hole", I mean, culture, economy, politics, freedom, social justice, safety, health, etc.), then suit yourself.

We are against Russia's cruelty and against EU letting Neo Nazis to take over Ukraine. In the same way no one should condem either Israel or Palestine but is against supporting Israel with troops.
