No, he is for Europe, as long than Germany is running it.

It's like crashing against a wall, certain narratives will remain the same in spite of developments.

Grexit and a general contraction in size of the eurozone. The EZ is clearly not working and it is endangering the general European project.

The Eurozone is not working because there's a misguided political direction and a defective institutional architecture. Neither of the two is the Greece's fault.

Considering that a major symptom of "misguided political direction" has been allowing Greece to join the Eurozone, and that a big chunk of the "defective institutional architecture" has been having Greece in the Eurozone, I would not have Greece acquited of the blame so easily.

No, the issue is than Eurozone policies are decided by Germany, for Germany.

Well, then expell Germany and see what is left Smiley

No, but, I mean, if they really want a common money, they must compromise. Euro can't be a Deutsch Mark than other countries happen to use, unless you want to destroy European Union in the process.

Well, the reasonable compromise would be to have Germany and a few other willilng countries to keep the euro and the rest (the non-willing) do whatever they like - they can create their own "southern euro" if they so like.  Alternatively, I suggest annexing Greece to Bavaria - that way Greeks would have some representation in the Bundestag.

The issue is while it may please Germany, it won't ever please European Union and Eurocrats.
