Cała wina leży teraz zjedzą tę żabę, a nie obciążają Bogu ducha winnych posiadaczy oszczędności.
It was months and even years ago -- remember that when Greece was forced through its restructuring it was known at the time that Cyprus banks held Greek bonds, and it was further known that they were pledged to the ECB.
So the real question remains as it has since this entire charade began: Why is it that after refusing to haircut those bonds at the time Greece restructured it is now Cyprus' responsibility to deal with this when the ECB and EU generally knew damn well those bonds were not worth crap and yet did nothing about it?
I continue to be amazed that the government of Cyprus doesn't throw this straight back into the ECB's and IMF's face and tell them: "You knew damn well these instruments were worthless -- or nearly so -- a year ago, and in fact knew this was going to be the outcome a year or two prior to that! You were the ones who in fact demanded and got the restructuring in question. Yet you intentionally took, at par, worthless paper. You weren't tricked, you took it willingly and intentionally. It's yours.
