The words "cake" and "eat it" spring to mind
Greek govt spokesman on the wires
- Greece does what it needs to be done each time a payment is due
- Greece wants to reach a deal to ease liquidity
Elsewhere on Greece spewing forth this morning is a govt statement saying that it respects the central bank's independence
And now another statement saying that Varoufakis was misquoted on earlier comments re ECB bonds
This from the Varouka himself on Twitter
"I spoke of a possible ESM-mediated repayment of ECB's SMP GGBs and some journos report I announced....non-payment. Astonishing propaganda!''
