It
is unwise for the EU leaders to freely comment on the forthcoming elections in
Greece. It sounds like outright interference in the domestic electoral process.
The Greeks will decide, based on their own internal power dynamics. Then, and
only after that, the rest of the EU will see what comes next. There will for
sure a need for negotiations. And everyone knows that only reasonable people
with sensible negotiating standpoints can achieve results. Therefore, I believe
that both sides, the Greeks and the external partners, will negotiate with a
key concern in mind: these are no times to rock the boat. These are times of
great global uncertainty and judicious people in Europe understand the current trends
and circumstances. It would be a serious mistake for all of us if moderation
was put aside. Leadership, today, at the beginning of this New Year, is about avoiding
a race and an acceleration towards more confrontations.
