Greece will inevitably become a Russian Colony.
Who will get the oil rights in the Aegean?
The Russians can have them!
“Greece will inevitably become a Russian Colony.”
SYRIZA would happily sell out Europe and NATO to to Russia, but Russia is far too broke to keep Greece afloat economically. They would like to sell out National interests to Turkey as well, but they just don’t have enough worth selling to cover their debts.
The best Russia could muster would be a few fire-sale deals on state secrets, economic and policy concessions. Maybe send some oil and gas. Just enough to delay the inevitable accounting with Europe, and allow leftists to pocket some cut on the deals.
Ultimately, only the Euros could keep Greece from a massive loss of wealth. They are the only ones with enough interest, and enough money.
