The reason is the extreme confrontation between the Government of Alexis Tsipras and the lenders of Greece, which has also led to an increase in interest rates on government securities.

The only certain consequences of exiting the euro zone would be the impoverishment of the majority of the population, the passage of property into the hands of black marketers and international isolation.

In relation to concerns that the government actions may lead to Greece’s exit from the euro zone, 43.5% of respondents indicate that this option causes fear in them and only 14.5% think it is hopeful.

"We are building a wall of dignity," Tsipras said, adding, "if the partners believed at one point that we would be followers of previous governments, we have certainly disappointed them."

Greece is experiencing perhaps its most dramatic period from the fall of the military junta in 1974 to the present day and its remaining in the euro zone is at stake.

The representatives of the International Monetary Fund argue that Greece is the most non-cooperating state in the 70-year history of the Fund, defining the behaviour of Athens to its official lenders as unacceptable.

Relatives, friends and thousands of people escorted on his last journey 20-year-old Vangelis Yakoumakis, a student at the Ioannina dairy industry school, whose tragic death shocked all of Greece. The procession was held in the village of Seli, 17 km from the town of Rethymno, Crete, today at noon.
