As a German I find your complete misrepresentation of reality insulting. The German political class is the reason why Greece still has the Euro. The Eastern Europeans never wanted to bail-out the Greeks to begin with, and have zero sympathy for their cries about inhumane austerity because the "austere" Greeks are still better off than the Eastern Europeans. Thus any transfer of money from e.g. Lithuania to Greece is perceived as a crying injustice. But even in Western Europe Germany is close to being Greece's best friend. The first bail-out was almost sabotaged by the Finns when they demanded collateral for their money. Which caused the Dutch to ask for that too. Meanwhile Evil Evil Schäuble knew that the Greeks would never be able to pay back that money - and lied to the German people about that "your money is safe, we will get everything back", he said.. shortly before agreeing to the first haircut. Billions of Euros of German tax payer money evaporated. Without the German government Finnish and Dutch ships would have transported away the Greek statues, gold, and whatever other valuable thing they could find. And if "European solidarity" depended on the Eastern Europeans the Greeks would have never gotten a cent. The Greeks who are so fond of the Euro should be endlessly thankful to the German political class (not the people - they never supported this bail-out). I think this is also the primary reason why Schäuble does not want another haircut. His original lie would become even more severe and the German electorate would become even angrier.
