the recordings start with the last thing that can give us the chance
when I first came to Greece it was January 2010
I was sent the flu
because there was a crisis in the euroland greece at one time
broken out they had fiddled with the figures m the statistics were not in order
and the government debt was
many times larger than anyone had thought
it meant that
the banks have investors who had invested in Greek debt
are from
for the time being no longer
Greece is nowhere to turn to the capital markets today
and there I was in Greece in one go
it’s time
demonstrating Greeks because they actually started demonstrating pretty quickly
because it was decided quite quickly to start cutting back even before europe
actually
jumped in
I have to rise from it to explain what we actually went wrong why
had gone horribly wrong
2 reports and to speak with the studio like we did
from his greece to the parliament or to the kro königssee
However, it must be headset because this is completely wrong
Yes
a ZZP’er not really because later
we put all sorts of things, I think it’s better yes
m at the time it was what I saw
he is the type that is not threatened but that does not matter
it sounds a bit crazy but for me it was just work I had
the previous year just go back in time because of the banking crisis
America
you can imagine all that was going on in the week they are struggling to be new
york lima and residents afterwards in the netherlands went one after the other bank
under
abn amro ford is
we had even had dsb before the Greek crisis broke out
it sounds a bit happy sea but for a journalist dancer is a debt crisis
what do you think of yes well that will be over again to solve them
back in Europe I really never expected
that I am so involved in such a process and that I would often have trucks in it
come like me
I’ve done
and
have a look
the property
it was about something we also went for the euro and euro that has on that
moment and
in the years thereafter
a few times on it
stand to disintegrate the party
and the euro I have
seems very good at it all but you do not get much more about it
but I’ll tell you it’s not over yet
and also not in danger of concerts
mutual coin
last year was perhaps the most significant 2015
then I have twice
worked together last month in Greece that was not alone
for the mls
but also to work at the top together with my colleague corrie racing in names
in athens
the course of people of us
and
that that fact raffaele and
this is indeed still nice in 2010 to tell this was the occupation of the
Acropolis that has been in May 2010
then he won the communists the ad figurehead of greece occupiers then
we went straight to the financial markets
the next day a car that beautiful names like the Greeks do not pick up then
we will never get our money back and that may well be a good thing
m, that’s exactly how I stood
regularly in greece
2015
I myself sat very much and always got the question from the Greek
do you come the Netherlands what do you actually think of us
and I am sometimes a bit uncomfortable with this
often from the Greeks we are going to work
like to vacation
the fin the Greek food very tasty we think the Greek own can
very nice
we want our money back anyway
not just our money back
who of me think that we will get our money back
but then it had to explain to the Greeks that he was a small one
problem
what we want our money back
There are many prejudices about the Greeks some are definitely the couple
m the coffin of course really
a mess it is the house look at how the load really is going to affect
does work
it is real
quite a mess
the Greeks are leimuidense absolutely not the case that work really more hours
a lot more even a day
and there are quite a few benefits that I have always felt the need to
also come for the greece that people get can also very often
people against that fantastic idea about how the country is from
could get out of this crisis
but nothing came out so that was also the moment that I could do this
week we decided to write here a book about what
if you worked for the journal for something surprising it could not work
then you actually get two and a half minutes to rise on paper
I’m exaggerating it is just two minutes and in the eight hour news
and then you have to have a look in don in six hours during the week that the child was walking
20 tons now
great fun and lots of telling nice images but if you are with
the people talk there know
also back and of course they want to have a link to the broadcast
look and not the news
you stay in contact with the people you actually hear
only after you have made the report with a free cup of coffee
how to adjust the actual story and that is sometimes really very distressing
what happened in 2015
it was 7 bizarre months when this man
in January 2015 came to power what first in five years crises
if there is someone who I do I no longer can go to stop with
cuts
That is all about a different approach
and he mol the election with one
a large majority I am more than a third of all Greeks vote for
to think that all the biggest party of greece
and this is what that on the election
Limburg is that unfortunately
7 I was very nervous showing maria again
control
Yes, of course, the news
piet rooijakkers that he is back
four cars
4 ran a week earlier on Monday one week earlier
but what more luck a day earlier I do I like to have been saved Wednesday until now
but I want to happen
that is what we do not get too bad this would be
and
Evertsen really celebrated a party that night on the streets real all night
by the people
this is exactly what they wanted to hear
after five years
crisis matters are finally green light at the end of the tunnel
the most valuable
mrs
we thought it won
I can say cyprus, but he is not money
what is going to happen
why we show these people
the really has happened a lot in recent years in greece
all the
for example health care
there is forty percent of the budget I do not know if you guys
to be able to imagine a little bit what happens next
but then you get that
Hey
then you get that in and hospitals like these films
but the big hospital in the food
and that half of the ambulances are the pieces
and that there is none
parts are or are not money to buy parts and the other half
actually there is no money at that time when I was the movie there was no money for it
diesel
they had to bite empty tanker happy that comes
so first the army had to refuel, then they could again
by had trainer
at
if an accident happens and you could be second wounded at the same time
take them to the ambulance brother that we did that on nature
reasonably badly injured
everything in an ambulance
this is a woman who really needs to set despina and who tells us how
going inside a hospital paccar does not always make it easy
With the room the privacy legislation allowed itself to measures heidfeld
I will sometimes think you are here
I’ve been the badger but without a camera hehe
third in the corridor they had to take the sheets from home because the lakers were
on
tender so that her mother was in the hospital
could eat
spraying buy in the pharmacy plants where no regrets me in the hospital
is just state hospitals
to give up that she needed blood transfusion to the bruijn and then there was enormous pressure
exerted on me to find a blood donor
asten that they could not find that might mean someone else
no
it was just real blood
the September found in Nancy
they knew and had the same blood type as her mother
That is really something that we could imagine very well
woman who despina the voice naturally see place
I not at ten at that time the animal tick runners on the debt and there is
there’s someone there who had been in athens
yeah i think i olympic stadium that is that audi existence still begin
twentieth century
kanye list can be a nice tip
Running beaming says very nicely with the whole city can your feet it is one
beautiful view
I was on the way there, and I saw my wife right next to him
stood up
those with a hook
over there
a bag of bread with bread
yes I was really warm in shock
I had seen trashes from trash bags, but I really was this lady
I am so nicely dressed and my mother could read that
and you know these numbers you know that the middle class is wiped out that that
there is a lot of poverty but if you see something like this in the early hours so there is not much
people are out on the streets because maybe she does
not if the children will start working again
then that is so if you also ing
I also want to tell you the story of the majors
marius did not work in a bookstore at the center of what things
interviewed for the news
this is never for my cameraman 4 in athens
we are on again
the wind was replaced by the prologue toro rosso
the fires involving the value of the area of living
Yes
the workplace
the citizen father a
this for questioning
willebroek gun on my head
yes but want to leave for what they have done with this
then I see how the application lost its job anyway because he had complained
this salary arrears had risen to 18,000 euros
he had for as long as two years had one after the prayer filled by the other
places do not make a big difference
altogether 18,000 euros spent on this is very special story this man
and woman worked badly after a week
there are 850,000 people in Greece who have that salary arrears
more than three months time one in four
Greeks working in the private sector
let that person penetrate you
and of course toned this mario’s option place
for seat that was a drama charismatic leftist politician who said
that he does the thing for a while
will act completely differently
they went
together with his minister of finance, often fully confront the confrontation
with europe bluff poker at the highest level
so 6 it is not different
a nice idea was europe and he says that he always comes to bush at north
European countries say
from now on have to keep to the cuts then you get something from us
help
they did not leave after the debt was done
and europe league really can not be at its 10 euro turnover the hardest that the first
that is not allowed at all
there is no rule that says goyer land from the euro for sale is okay not legally
and secondly they have themselves
actually a lot harder to tackle because what will happen then as a country
from the euro
Italy does not want to pay the costs afterwards
just too high to see own interest of europe
being able to drive
hard to go because they are not going to do that anyway
so the set went here with our own
minister of the German team
chairman is still from the eurogroup
and
negotiate for months
the white the Greeks the ordinary Greeks who no longer knew how they had it
actually something
they were terrified that saw that if this went wrong that greece
all the way
broken saw that if they really out of the euro would be put and not
everybody
believers
exactly what one of paris promised
What will happen then I may go back in time for twenty thirty years
you get the drachma
Well that is not the end at the beginning, the no light at the end
from the tunnel
So
When I was in Greece I saw that I was leading
both banks are standing
certainly at the end of the month if the pensions were paid out
final piece paid out the first people joined the bank
to find out the salary that turned out to be home because later I picked it up
not
the one gets nothing anymore
and that’s what happened
and this week but money big thing athens shipping
because 3
in vending machines that had to keep giving money because on with the pin
vending machines
to come there would panic break out
was the thought
in the panic that break talks out anyway
in the middle of the night
the Greeks knew that they were able to fully debit for the last time, I have the witty
celebrated
a whole row because r
leaving the hospital announced that the reason was probably still
all of them
and about those cuts from brussels and it would have gone hard and that
we all had to say once he had said to the Greek h
that was too big a public just before time with the money tap shut and the banks on
reduce the number of policies
people do not put more pins at the moment
what does that mean
people that it is clear the banks were close you could this is no money anymore
on take you could within only 60 euros per day otherwise that is still true
in Greece
that people do not know
at this time
you can spread it over the width smaghi at 20 o’clock at the end
of the week
I still do not know what you have on your bank account
companies that want to transfer money must have their special committee that this is one
few weeks before the permission given
send money from the country so it is
yes that many people do not know yet is not really that much changed
the first few weeks that week before the referendum and the week after the bank
completely closed
means for the old people who do not have a debit card hardeman
in greece most of the changes had to be made with debit cards
you just could not pay with their money anymore
then they opened a few state-owned banks for the old ones so they joined
the money could be
This comes down to slicks
you had to pull the number here is not at which bank you had what you
there had to be written reinforcement
old people who were waiting all day
and sometimes not even the turn came the scenes this x 9 no votes
ita peace that week for the
that referendum which wears something poignant
But in the end, most people said it
no here too
in the referendum
and you know that is over
and weeks later, worse said injection greenhouses had years he could not be any different and I think
that those images of those old people have surely been decisive for him
his leg had stiff than you knew he had no money for the pensions
So that was not a matter of ethics that could not be picked up at the bank
as a favorite
I think that opportunity does not dare I’m sure he does not
dared
greece itself with 2015 against 86 billion euros in gent’s outlook
who would have thought that at that moment
m
x I think that you rise
we have canceled and it is as if that is going well I wanted to leave and I leave
see this both banks at night
the older people
didier knows this man
it was the result of the referendum
and the newspaper
what ovulation so big
everyone in greece does not demand florist like you
in athens against says she comes from the Netherlands says the time his blood
do you have them stupid
yes it is still not very good prices
after the same happened with his show in Turkey it would work a taxi driver
his child has an exciting match with the beautiful bow
with nine matches
if I have him here of the human properties with wilson nights mountain
paperwork
it is steel face
the mark on course 4 this actually only if you singer partly on the editors
still to be brushed
this is a bronze a beautiful picture but this can be recognized in what is shown here
is with a fault of Merkel
we are a year
later
last week, greece received 2 billion euros that package
of 86 billion because they have further cut back taxes are those
gone up far
I do not know if anyone has read it in a newspaper
you will not get anything out of it
2 in the more than 2 billion went that way and this is a bit of a return
a it
No
because their pension is being cut just what that expression should try
do not respect
if i wonder what i like for games
the farmer is still a reason it is out of the news because we have
of course also with a world problem at the moment the refugees
obama and his replacement becomes someone we do not know what to do with it
to happen
and you see a ticket
news is it’s so what
little flights guessing that top event all balls go together
and then now something is scared from the news
but I started with the question of why the crisis is not over
the first cut back enormously that is something we already come up with that does not
everyone better is really hugely cut no that is not just in the
health care
and a lot of surfaces
and the public finances have become current, and both are even slightly more important
then that it goes out itself has little Greek government this time out
and the expectation is that the economy will go again next year
grow the agent is 50 percent off more than 50 percent
but you must know that 5
moment thousands of young people have left the country now that are sitting in it
the netherlands in england in in in germany
and that is especially the highly educated young a whole generation
unemployment is still above 50 percent that speeches have dropped round
to be that for young people
are drawn
m
but
the youth
that in the country unfavorable generation that I would have to go back to getting it back on
building can therefore also be money
Look for example at the bank ubs a proper banco
half of all loans on the balance sheet there is a payment arrears
worth half
in the Netherlands there is less than 4 percent
nothing half a percent says incorrectly the Netherlands is weena percentages
Greece
nearly 50 percent
mortgages two-thirds of homeowners
has a payment arrears of more than three months on his mortgage
two-thirds
taxes
each makes
the amount that the Greeks do not continue to taxpayers on debt
is now more than 90 billion euros that is last August figures
30 billion euros that they are not even half the Greek economy and so is
or in the Netherlands 300 billion euros
not collected taxes
even though the economy is growing next year, I know I have told me
that the basis is not so very healthy that underneath is already as if
police are getting worse
things are going well here, we are growing work
it is not very healthy yet
that is simply not
the reason why I think that the crisis is not over yet, he won
I think that in northern Europe we will of course get if the money does not
back and maybe my black must say that we must take a loss
and the Greeks must offer some perspective but I do not know if it is with me
agree
m i thought the theme here is europe and that you can do with that i thought i was europe
plan the next ten days with I will do
