I don't understand your point. Their democratic mandate is to say no to Trioka terms. Great. That's what they did and it resulted in the situation we have now.

If they continue down the path of their mandate it will result in Greece exiting the Eurozone. This should not be a surprise to anyone.
The other choice is to accept Troika terms, keep Greece in the Eurozone, and potentially lose face.
In any case it is a situation that the Tsipras government caused, a situation that was predictable and a situation that they should have to deal with and stand by themselves.
The whole point of having a government is that the people should not be faced with having to make these kinds of decisions that involve many complexities and have long-ranging consequences. Calling in a referendum for precisely these decisions is a declaration of incompetence.
