One year after taking office, the government of Antonis Samaras is trying to persuade anyone willing to listen that the end of the crisis is near. But the reality from Greek streets sunk in apathy belies the optimistic front the prime minister puts up for the international bodies.
In this climate of recession, EU member states have managed to find common ground on longstanding divisive issues: overfishing, asylum rights and the management of borders. Proof, says a Swedish columnist, that Europe is capable of speaking with one voice.
