Telegraph - Greek Crisis Live: Reports the following on the visit to Paris, France of Germany's Chancellor Merkel, " The German Chancellor is done with dinner and given a very short statement. She says she awaits new reform plans from Mr Tsipras tomorrow, but says now is not the time to talk of new deals as government's are still reacting to last night's vote. "
Lets Get Real:
It is clear that Chancellor Merkel is not putting HER head on the line to save Greece at the expense of her own political future, that is the problem with any new call for a bailout of Greece, there are other leaders within Euro who will have to go back to their Parliaments to ask for more money for Greece, also there elections coming up in Spain, any relaxing of the Euro rules would mean that the extreme left could run on anti austerity message and get the Germans to pay the cost. Thus expect tense days ahead, Germany is no push over, the Chancellor has to worry what her own Party might think if she tries to push another Greek bailout.
