Tsipras is coming…

Alexis Tsipras was on a visit in Berlin on 23 March to meet Angela Merkel and discuss disagreements in particular with Finance minister Wolfgang Schäuble on the conditions of Greece's next bailout. After the meeting Greek Prime minister said Greece "will respect agreements" and that "social issues" and in particular the high youth unemployment, "will be taken into account", reports Der Spiegel. Tsipras also said that "Greeks are not lazy and Germans are not responsible for all of Greece's problems".
