>From the Guardian, another assault on the Tsipras government by a former left-wing supporter.

Konstantopoulou was president of the Greek parliament and a driving force to have the government cancel the country's odious debt.

All that's missing from her catalogue of capitulation is mention that the Syriza-led government also spends more of austerity-ravaged Greece's GDP on its military (2.4%) than any other NATO country barring the US, one of a very few to satisfy the Trump administration's demands for more military spending and especially scandalous in the context of a Greek population still mired in depression.
