Yes, thanks for taking my question. Tyler Durden from ZeroHedge.
Mr. Tsipras, are you finished being the EU's bitch and after your meeting with President Putin are ready to actually do something to improve the situation in your country, or will you keep grabbing your ankels? Rumor has it Frau Merkel has a larger penis than President Putin.
He will do nothing, socialists always vote for these rebels that turn out to be nothing more than banker puppets. It's just part of the act (and they never catch on).
"Now lets all slip out back and enjoy some lamb"
Let's slip out back for a ride in the Choom wagon....Ya!
I sense tremendous anger in boardrooms from Brussels to Berlin to Washington.
100:1 we will soon hear about a new Greek arm of al Qaeda.
Greece acting like it's some kind of sovereign state will not go over well with their EU IMF overlords.
Putin probably didn't have to say much...........
"Hey Alex, nice to meet you, have you heard of the new Chinese International Banking Venture???"
Yes, good, we're the future, their the past......any questions?"
"No..........great lets go eat and drink"
" Typically a white European telling another white European go F..K your Self..
Any thing else to add?!...

I'm making over $7k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is what I do... www.globe-report.com
Winter? Oh right, think we blew winter too.
Goodbye Europe.....Greece has a new sugar-daddy.
Damn you Putin!
ALL HAIL CHUMBA
This is quite hard to follow.
Putin's speaking Russian, Tsipras Greek and The translator electronic-toy-English
Soundman turn down the volume of the live speaker in the mix and turn up the student translator's volume please.
That's good.
Russian tanks in Greece when?
Right after they set up a military base in a Greek port
Something tells me Augustus won't be in here saying something ignorant about Russia.
Once he gets done worshiping at his altar to Richard Perle, he'll be back with his PNAC talking points like a good little troll.
This exchange sounded like the one I heard at Walmart between the cashier and the EBT customer after the cashier called for a translator.
Putin says "In Soviet Russia, 500 ruble make you own Russian bride. In Greece, 500 ruble Russian bride owns you."
Putin is probalby one of the smartest world leaders, and actually quite predictable. Pretty sure he will not simply give the Greeks a blank check, if there needs to be emergency bailing out let the EU pay for it and he will pick up the pieces. Rather there will be some wheeling and dealing and both will look good - (or bad in the eyes of the EU). Watch the sanction question cause big rifts in Brussels.
Putin will slow-play his hand but a Grexit is inevitable.
Greece just gave up a big chunk of its remaining leverage with the West
Tsirpas couldn't secure any funding in Beijing, Berlin, London or Washington thus doesn't care to be walking the party line with sanctions on Russia.
Greece will default on its payment to IMF and that's it. Greece is toast.
Greece will default on all its payments (including the IMF one), but somebody else will be uber toast as well...
Translation:
Tsipras: we'd do anything to make our bluff seem believable. However, the thruth is we're here to beg a few coins because we're stubborn on not doing the reforms our nation needs to become competitive again.
Putin: I'd like to publicly thank my brand new bitch Alexis for offering me his country's ass. Now Greece will favor Russian interests acting as a destabilizer in Europe, at least until those Europeans stop putting their nose into (their) my backyard. Yes, yes, I had to give'em a few pennies, taking them from the starving Russian folks who are being ass-rammed by the American-orchestrated fall in oil prices, but who cares about peasants anyway... It's only my grand plan that matters!
My comments: this is utterly pathethic. After today the EU should *actually* start being tough with Greece: now it's in or out. Hey Alex, wanna play by your own rules? Go play somewhere else, not here.
If the EU actually plays tough, they're fucking themselves. Greece just doesn't have the money to pay their debts.
They could play tough, they could play soft, fact is the money is gone and its not coming back and when that realization hits then all the other money that is also gone and won't be coming back too. Maybe all the other deadbeats will be making like Argentina at the same time.
I'm not going to stop being paranoid because I learned something from history.
I already see the title of Tsipras's new book about current geopolitical events: Having the courage to act. Hope, it's not taken.
Russia now has a Mediterranean vacation spot.
Sailor's delight.
Cyprus !
Russia lost billions in Cyprus which is probably why the country's currency went into tailspin soon after. Just follow the money.... But to think Russians will park their billions in Greece is ludicrous. There won't be any Russian money coming into Greece.
So, your giving an photo example of the Greek option?
Putin has time to hack the White House AND entertain the Greeks? Nice multitasking Vlad.
Two losers .... is Vlad going to Venceluego, Niggeria, Kuntshasha .... too pathetic ?
Turkey did more damage to Greece .... historically .... than Germany .... how much is Tsirpas asking from Turkey .... I'm sorry .... reparations is reparations ? Alexander the Great, The Romans, Muslims .... EOR .... Equal Opportunity Reparations ? Greece is not without sin ?
Greece has WNDs and Nigerian "yellow-cake."
The banksters need to repay us.
150 years of de facto reparations .... and bo diddly squat to show for it .... talk about negative dividends ?
Greece default in a week. Same day next week, the world will change for Greeks and potentially all of us.
IMF doesn't get paid which puts Greece automatically into default - no ifs or buts.
One week to secure physical....
As a Greek, here is my opinion about today's meeting:
- Tsipras, never asked about economic assistance.
>This was established on reporters follow-up questions.
-Tsipras tried to push agricultural products exports.
>Joint export companies were proposed, for not falling under immediate EU sanctions. Furthermore, Putin stated that there could be no exceptions of Russian embargo to any EU country.
-It was proposed as a use-case the build of a nnatural gas pipeline from Turkey to mainland Greece.
>We never heard that this pipeline would be part of a greater project.
I came to the conclusion that Tsipras made a PR bet. He lost it regarding foreign relations, especially european/imf relations, but had partial gains domestically.
Perhaps the real deal will be disclosed after Greece defaults on the EU loans.
The visit alone is enough to get Europe nervous, what's announced afterwards is practically moot. Neither side is going to make rash announcement about naval bases or sanctions vetos or lifting of bans just for Greece, only to give Europe sanctimonious ammunition in the media for months on end: "The Greeks are EU 5th column!" "Evil Putin moving to tear EU apart!"
putin = Hitler = criminal

Putin is the only adult in the room.

For laughs and giggles, also tell us what you think of Dick Cheney!
EU wants Greece to do the death dance by accumulating more debt to pay existing debt.
Greece wants out.
Russia is not going to help with money. But will provide trade opportunities for Greek people. The final scheme will be close to barter.
That's what Russia has been doing lately and quietly with its partners.
Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Iran, are all in on similar trade deals.
While west talks about free trade, Russia and allies are actually implementing them progressively.
TSIPRAS IN RUSSIA TO FORCE PUTIN TO HANDOVER CRIMEA
Greece ready to use force, will only back down if Moscow buys Greek debt.

You know, I think it's too early to say what just happened here.
Two possibilities come to mind:
1) Greece wanted a deal and Russia said no.
2) Russia was willing to deal but the terms were such that Greece said no.
Since the EU has been after Greece to sell off some of its state assets and earlier reports indicated that Russia might be interested in helping Greece in return for some of these items, this boils down to Russia only being willing to help under the same terms as the EU was insisting upon as a pre-condition for their assistance.
If this is the case, then Tspiras does deserve some credit for sticking to his ideological guns and not selling out to either Russia or the EU.
If, on the other hand, Russia merely offered sympathy but no cash and Greece was eager to have some of the latter, this leaves them with no choice but to fulfill the conditions laid out by the EU. They are clearly most interested in staying in the Euro zone as Option # 1.
