Παραιτείται ο Γιάννης Βαρουφάκης σήμερα


Μόλις έλαβα μια επιστολή του Γιάννη Βαρουφάκη με την οποία λέει ότι παραιτείται σήμερα κι όλας από υπουργός για να διευκολύνει τον Τσίπρα στις διαπραγματεύσεις, αφού αυτή η "απαίτηση" των δανειστών θα μπορούσε να του κάνει τη ζωή δύσκολη.
Παραθέτω την επιστολή ως έχει

Minister No More!


The referendum of 5th July will stay in history as a unique moment when a small European nation rose up against debt-bondage.
Like all struggles for democratic rights, so too this historic rejection of the Eurogroup’s 25th June ultimatum comes with a large price tag attached. It is, therefore, essential that the great capital bestowed upon our government by the splendid NO vote be invested immediately into a YES to a proper resolution – to an agreement that involves debt restructuring, less austerity, redistribution in favour of the needy, and real reforms.
Soon after the announcement of the referendum results, I was made aware of a certain preference by some Eurogroup participants, and assorted ‘partners’, for my… ‘absence’ from its meetings; an idea that the Prime Minister judged to be potentially helpful to him in reaching an agreement. For this reason I am leaving the Ministry of Finance today.
I consider it my duty to help Alexis Tsipras exploit, as he sees fit, the capital that the Greek people granted us through yesterday’s referendum.
And I shall wear the creditors’ loathing with pride.
We of the Left know how to act collectively with no care for the privileges of office. I shall support fully Prime Minister Tsipras, the new Minister of Finance, and our government.
The superhuman effort to honour the brave people of Greece, and the famous OXI (NO) that they granted to democrats the world over, is just beginning.
Τα κανάλια ακόμα δεν το έχουν μάθει. Αναρωτιέμαι αν είναι καμιά πλάκα και την έχω πατήσει, αν και είμαι εγγεγραμένος στο μπλογκ του Βαρουφάκη και όσα έχω λάβει ως τώρα ήταν όλα έγκυρα.
