Quote:
In Germany — which for many Greeks came to epitomise an obsession with austerity as a solution to the country’s woes — the end of the programme was welcomed by the government as proof that the years of financial aid had worked.
“Greece’s salvation is also a sign of European solidarity,” Olaf Scholz, Germany’s centre-left finance minister, told Handelsblatt newspaper. “The conclusion of the Greece programme is a success. The bleak predictions of the prophets of doom have not come true.”
