They'll never pay it off - there's more chance of Sadiq Khan holding a Jewish gay pride festival in Tower Hamlets, with Ken Livingston as guest speaker.
I like the last scheduled payment of €74,600,000 on August 20, 2045 !
More bailouts then politically motivated write off is probably on the cards.

Isn't majority of the money owed to Germany and possibly France. Hence, German reluctance to let Greece go - but not sure how long can they keep propping them up. They will have to write off significant amount of debt, but even then not sure if Greece can stay out of trouble.Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostSo do Italy, Spain, and France. It would be interesting to see their "who's owed what" bill.Comment
