Tim Geithner: The 3 Words That Saved The Euro Were Ad-Libbed

"Whatever it takes:" Those three words, uttered by European Central Bank president Mario Draghi in July 2012, are some of the most important words ever spoken in Europe's history. They may have rescued the European monetary union. And they were ad-libbed. That's the claim of former U.S. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, according to a transcript of an interview he gave in preparation for his recent memoir. The transcript was obtained by the Financial Times, which first reported Geithner's claim about Draghi's remarks. According to Geithner, when Draghi pledged in a speech in London to do "whatever it takes" to deal with Europe's sovereign-debt crisis and "preserve the euro," he was making it up as he went along. Draghi, Geithner says, hadn't cleared his line-in-the-sand statement with anyone before he made it and wasn't even sure what policies he could or would use to back it up. Geithner, through a spokeswoman, declined to comment to The Huffington Post. An ECB representative also declined to comment. This is, of course, only Geithner's version of events. The Telegraph's Ambrose Evans-Pritchard is skeptical. Evans-Pritchard writes that Draghi did consult with German officials –- the European Union's de facto center of gravity –- before announcing the bond-buying program that backed up his words a month later. A senior official at the German Finance Ministry even bragged a few weeks before Draghi's comments that “nothing flies in the eurozone right now without our permission.” That would seem to include ultimatums promising to ensure the integrity of the European Union itself. The German Finance Ministry did not return a request for comment. The German official's bluster could be just that, but there is a lot of truth to it. One of the main factors, if not the main factor, constraining Draghi's response to the European crisis was Germany's refusal to offer any aid to countries like Greece and Italy without harsh, often self-defeating terms. If Geithner is correct, if Draghi really did spring his "whatever it takes" line without consulting the Germans, then Draghi was very clever to do so. It put the Germans in a box, forcing them to accept a public statement they likely would not have agreed to had it been pre-negotiated. Things in Europe would have gotten much, much worse if Draghi had not made his statement. And Draghi likely knew that there was a good chance he could make things better simply by making that statement, even if he had no plan to back up his words at the moment he uttered them. Draghi's statement, and the bond-buying policy that followed, had a huge impact on the stability of European debt markets. Before, Spanish ten-year bonds were hitting yields of almost 8 percent. They've been dropping ever since and are now just above 2 percent. The bond-buying plan Draghi used to back up his statement, known as Outright Monetary Transactions, or OMT, has worked despite never being enacted. Simply announcing that it existed -- not long after declaring that whatever the central bank did, "believe me, it will be enough" -- was enough to calm markets. Draghi understood that saying "whatever it takes" would force recalcitrant policy makers to act and markets to recalibrate. It's what academics call a "performative utterance:" Saying it makes it so. It was smart, close-to-spontaneous politics. And it likely saved the European Union.

ELSTAT: Greek Unemployment Fell to 25.9% in Aug‏ust

The decrease within a 12-month period is reflecting the record arrival of tourists in the country, the Authority underlined. Unemployed Greeks totaled 1,242,219 last August, while, in contrast, the number of employed people were 3,551,148, 0.9% more than in August 2013 but 0.4% less than July 2014. At the same time, the number of unemployed people fell by 112,186 in August, 8.3% down compared to August 2013 and down 1.6% compared to July 2014. The unemployment rate among women was 29.5% in August 2014, 2.5% down from August 2013, when it reached 32%. Similarly, the unemployment rate among men was 23.1% in August this year, 1.5% down from the same month in 2013, when the rate reached 24.6%. Youth unemployment rate also recorded a decrease in August 2014. Unemployment among young people aged 15-24 was 49.3% in August 2014, 9.3% lower than the same month in 2013, when it was 58.6%. During the same period, the unemployment rate among ages 25-34 fell to 32.7% from 37.7% last year (5% down), while in the age group 35-44 it fell to 22.5% from 24% (1.5% down), in the 45-54 age group it fell to 20.2% from 20.7% (0.5% down). In contrast, unemployment in the 55-64 age group rose to 16.6% from 15.8% (0.8% up) and in the 65-74 age group rose to 13.5% from 8.9% (4.6% up). The country’s region with the highest unemployment rate in August 2014 was Eastern Macedonia and Thrace with 27%, followed by Attica with 26.9%, and Epirus and Western Macedonia with 26.6%.

British Airways: New Direct Flights to Rhodes and Crete

After Delta Air Lines, which announced new direct flights from New York to Athens starting from summer 2015, yesterday British Airways also announced plans for increasing the frequency of flights to Greek destinations. According to the company’s announcement, two new direct flights will connect London’s second largest airport, Gatwick, with the popular islands of Rhodes and Crete, starting from the upcoming summer season of 2015. British Airways will operate two extra weekly flights to Rhodes, starting from April 29 and four weekly flights to Heraklion, Crete, scheduled for Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. As the company underlined, the direct flights to the two Greek islands will be carried out until the end of the touristic period, while the British company already operates direct flights to other popular Greek summer destinations, such as the islands of Kos, Corfu, Mykonos and Santorini. Apart from these, British Airways operates on a daily basis to Athens and Greece’s second largest city, Thessaloniki. The cost for flights to Rhodes starts from 237 GBP and as the company underlined it is “the most visited of the Greek Islands – it’s clear to see why so many people are charmed. A beach lover’s paradise – the island is fringed with glorious sands and bright blue waters, which are superb for diving. One of the best-preserved Old Towns in Europe, its medieval past is still very present in the architecture and character of the older areas. The buzzing nocturnal scene of Faliraki, the peaceful allure of Ixia and the impressive hot springs of Kallithea provide a wonderful contrast, which can been seen across the island.” Accordingly, the cost for flights to Heraklion starts from 69 GBP (one way). “Heraklion provides easy access to some of the island’s most popular holiday destinations, but the vibrant city center is not to be overlooked. Heraklion ticks all of the shopping, dining and sightseeing boxes of a city break. While the surrounding resorts will entice you with their stunning coastlines, embrace the glorious beaches by day and vibrant nightlife by night,” British Airways highlighted.

‘Nisos’ Beer Wins First Silver Medal for Greece

Greek beer “Nisos” won the silver European Beer Star Award in the category Bohemian Pilsner in an international competition that took place in Bavaria, Germany, yesterday. This is the first time ever that a Greek beer wins such an award. Nisos (island in Greek) is brewed on the island of Tinos. The microbrewery is in the Vaya village and it was founded by Alexandros Kouris, Maya Tsokli, Elina and Costis Dellis. Tsokli is a well-known Greek journalist and travel commentator. The first batches appeared in liquor stores, bars and restaurants in April 2013. Since then, its flavor has won many beer drinkers in Greece. The founders say that Nisos was inspired by the rich colors and flavors of the Greek islands, the golden sun, the blue sea and sand of the Aegean Sea. It is also the work of local artisans, using the finest quality ingredients growing in the Greek soil. In the Bavarian competition, 1,613 beers from 42 countries from all continents were tasted. The evaluation was conducted by 105 judges who undertook blind tasting. The contest judges evaluated taste, color, flavor, and overall impression. Competition was hard, as the 17-month-old microbrewery had to compete against beer makers with hundreds of years of tradition. However, the Greek pilsner excelled against tough competitors from the Czech Republic, Germany and the U.S. Kouris and Tsokli said that they went to receive the award as ambassadors of Tinos and Greece and not as entrepreneurs. They went on the podium wearing T-shirts with the Greek flag and the word ‘Tinos’ written on them. After receiving the award, Kouris stated, “The whole Nisos team is especially proud and excited. We have been on the market for only 17 months and we dared enter the competition for the experience of participation. We knew that we make a good beer but did not expect to take second place on the podium.” “Now, for the first time, Greece is placed on the world map of top beers. Incredible but true,” Kouris concluded.

Alcohol Consumption in Greece Halved Due to Recession

It seems that Greeks cannot afford to drown their recession sorrows in booze, an Infobank Hellastat study showed. The figures released show a 45% decline in alcohol sales since the start of the recession in 2008, according to a report from Greek newspaper “Kathimerini.” The study showed that alcohol consumption has dropped significantly, particularly in bars, clubs, cafes and restaurants, places that were swarming with people before the recession. Also, Greeks seem to drink about half of what they used to drink at home. Total consumption of alcoholic drinks in 2013 dropped below 1.2 million liters, when in 2008 Greeks consumed 2.26 million liters. Whiskey is reported to have suffered the greatest decline, followed by ouzo. However, last year’s drop was considerably smaller than that seen in previous years. The study also showed that other than the general economic downfall, continuous taxation hikes led consumers to buy less alcohol. The special consumption tax on alcohol has increased by 125 percent since early 2009. The special tax has driven the average cost of imported spirits to 25.50 euros per liter, while locally produced spirits cost an average 12.75 euros per liter. However, the 1% increase in alcohol sales in 2013, hints that the downturn may stop. Last year, 1.68 million liters of alcohol were sold in Greece. But the slight increase is attributed mostly to exports, and mainly those of ouzo. Greek ouzo manufacturers have benefited from the increase in overseas demand, thus balancing losses from domestic sales. Also, the recession has forced many Greek consumers to turn to homemade spirits, such as tsipouro, and to contraband spirits.

Meet A Whole New Generation Of Street Art Emerging In Athens, Greece

“Graffiti is one of the few tools you have if you have almost nothing," Banksy famously proclaimed. "And even if you don't come up with a picture to cure world poverty you can make someone smile while they're having a piss.” The world's most recognizable street artist has a point -- graffiti has a tendency to pop up in dire times. And while it may not solve the world's pressing problems, street art has a way of grabbing the public's attention. Getty photography Milos Bicanksi recently took notice of the rise in contemporary graffiti in one particular location -- on the streets of Athens, Greece. As the country experiences the hardships connected with economic collapse and unemployment, a generation of politically-minded artists have turned public spaces into canvas. Their murals and street artworks run the gamut from hyperrealism to abstract cartoons, poetic text to expansive geometric landscapes. Bicanski has photographed it all. Take a look at the survey of Greek graffiti, wheat pastes and spray paint masterpieces below, provided without commentary for your viewing pleasure. Keep in mind, Athens is just one of the 21st centuries emerging street art meccas. Check out our previous coverage on global street art here. (All photos courtesy of Milos Bicanski/Getty Images)

Vangelis Composes Theme for Rosetta Space Mission

Oscar-winning Greek composer Vangelis (Papathanasiou) has been commissioned to write three musical numbers for the Rosetta ESA mission. The European Space Agency made history yesterday by landing the first spacecraft on the surface of a comet. The Philae spacecraft landed twice on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The confirmation was relayed via the Rosetta orbiter to Earth and picked up simultaneously by ESA’s ground station in Malarguee, Argentina and NASA’s station in Madrid, Spain. The signal was immediately confirmed at ESA’s Space Operations Centre, ESOC, in Darmstadt, and DLR’s Lander Control Centre in Cologne, both in Germany, according to NASA. The ambitious space mission will now have its own cinematic soundtrack. The ESA commissioned Vangelis to compose three pieces for Rosetta, concluding with “Rosetta’s Waltz” which has just been released. Vangelis is not new to composing space themes as in 2001 he had released the album “Mythodea: Music for the NASA mission: 2001 Mars Odyssey.” Inspired by the NASA mission to Mars, the album and the DVD of the concert at the Temple of Olympian Zeus site in June 2001 had a promotional tie-in with NASA. ESA has quoted him as saying, “Mythology, science and space exploration are subjects that have fascinated me since my early childhood. And they were always connected somehow with the music I write.” The Greek composer won the Oscar for Best Music for “Chariots of Fire” in 1981. A year later, he wrote the score to 1982 sci-fi epic “Blade Runner” that was nominated for BAFTA. Other soundtracks by Vangelis are Antarctica, 1492: Conquest of Paradise, Alexander, and the PBS documentary Cosmos: A Personal Voyage by Carl Sagan. He also wrote the music for the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. Watch “Rosetta’s Waltz” here:
