The Eurogroup seems blind to the fact that Tsipras and Varoufakis are probably the creditors’ most reliable allies in Greece today. Both are moderate reformists with widespread popular support who are actually willing to repay, even if they know they cannot. By forcing Syriza’s relatively cooperative leadership into a humiliating cash-for-reforms deal, the creditors may actually end up strengthening the hand of the pro-default radicals inside the government. Alternatively, if they refuse to sign a deal and continue to deprive the Greek government of the emergency credit on which it depends to service its maturing obligations, they may simply make default unstoppable. .
Characterizing others "blind to the facts", ignorant, that is stupid, means giving up any effort to explain and understand their deeds. At the same time, not having at all any explanation is not, admittedly, that brilliant! Yet, a very good measure, of one's own stupidity, is the number of stupids he can count around. And Roos counts too many of them...
