Europe Day message from the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nikos Kotzias (Athens, 9 May 2018)
The anniversary of 9 May symbolizes the realization of the most ambitious and successful model for peace and cooperation in world history: the process of European integration, which contributed to the consolidation of peace and cooperation, democracy, the rule of law and the protection of human rights, as pillars of the modern European political culture. However, this day should not simply be an occasion for celebration, but also an opportunity for reflection and comprehensive evaluation of the course of EU integration.The emerging challenges of our time make it necessary to identify and remedy the inherent weaknesses and shortfalls of the European edifice, including, among other things, the lack of accountability and democratic legitimization. At the same time, we should undertake additional efforts to avoid the establishment of a two-speed system, to strengthen the social state and the values of collective action and solidarity in practice, to take initiatives aimed at growth and at employment of European citizens –mainly of young generations– throughout Europe and to strengthen Europe’s ability to protect the security and prosperity of its citizens.The European Union should emerge from this process even stronger, more democratic, more integrated, so that the vision of a better and more just future for its citizens can become a reality.Greece remains committed to the vision of a Europe of solidarity and social justice, of democracy and institutional equality. To this end, it will continue to actively participate in shaping the future of the EU, in order to strengthen democracy, liberty and the rule of law in every corner of the European continent.

Fear and loathing in Buenos Aires: will Argentina’s IMF gamble pay off?
Argentina’s president and IMF leave troubled relationship behind to shore up peso – but people have long memories Seventeen years ago Argentina was a country in crisis. The economy was in freefall, there was a general strike, there was capital flight and there were middle-class protests on the streets of Buenos Aires because the banks were closed for business. People lost their lives in riots. Presidents came and went with bewildering regularity. Argentina was to the southern hemisphere what Greece was to the northern hemisphere in 2015 – only worse. The International Monetary Fund was deeply implicated in the crisis. The Washington-based institution had been a strong backer of the country’s hardline economic strategy based around convertibility of the peso into dollars. The idea was that currency discipline would force Argentina to make a decisive break with its inflationary past. What it actually led to by the turn of the millennium was a deep slump. The political backlash against grinding austerity led not only to the abandoning of convertibility but a break with the IMF and all its works. Continue reading...
