Just look at the Target-2 balance sheet. Roughly around
2 trillion of credits Germany has accepted for other nations' central banks' benefit - and that the ECB would now need to pay back to Germany, owes it to Germany - AND NEVER WILL PAY OUT FOR SURE. Everbyody nows it.
TWO TRILLION.
Außer Spesen nix gewesen. Just a clap on the shoulder and a lukewarm handshake. France and the Club Med nation wnat to lead this dsysbalance to new extremes and have the other net payers being abused to new extremes. Thats what is behidn their demand that all EU nation'S debts should be collectiovised. France will not pay for that.
It will get payments. Mostly from Germany. Thats why I show this proposal my middle finger.
BTW, Poland and Greece need money, and so they demand WW2 reparations once again, issues that by valid treaties, signed agreements and international laws are set and settled already. Poland wants 1.3 trillion Euros. Greece wants 300 billion Euros. Due to forum regulations I cant say what I would tell them both. You can safely assume it is nothing friendly.
