"Greek did take part of a fund destined to boost their economy, like Western european countries with the US's Marshall Plan."
Unless I'm mistaken, you are very mistaken, and confusing things.
"Greek debt" has nothing to do with the EU Cohesion fund (which is open to all member states which meet the criteria) or Euro Bonds (which , to this date, do not exist), but with a large number of national bonds that have been bought by the ECB and IMF specifically.
So yes, basically Greece took Euro money and now is planning not to repay it.
I agree though that saying that every Greek is responsible for this situation, or that the conditions for repayment are fair, are other matters entirely.
