Commentary features on the Greek debt crisis during the momentous events in Greece leading up the referendum of 5 July 2015. What would a Greek exit from the euro mean for the future of European integration? Michiel van Hulten writes that although the notion that a Grexit could spell the beginning of the end for the integration process is far-fetched, the EU is nevertheless in serious need of reform. He argues however that the solution is unlikely to be found in reducing the powers delegated to Brussels, noting that the Greek crisis could have been avoided if more stock had been put in the views of the European Commission when Greece initially joined the EEC. Many of the related url hyperlinks are also commentary features on the issues relating to Greece, the euro and the implications of the call for the 5 July 2015 referendum and its debt default. Other commentary features widen the discussion to look at the wider political implications for the EU and EU policy making of the Greek debt crisis. |
