On 23 April 2010, the prime minister of the day George Papandreou appealed for international help to prevent Greece's collapse. But the three years that followed saw a series of blunders by the Troika and the Greek state, according to a series of economic analyses.
Attacks on April 17 against undocument migrants demanding to be paid for their work as seasonal labourers harken to century-old peasant struggles, risking to further tarnish the image of a country already marked by rising xenophobic violence and impunity for its perpetrators.
Greek statistics are now finally reliable, even according to Eurostat. However, the man largely responsible for a shake-up of working practices in the country is now facing charges of treason.
