- EC President Barroso
European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso acknowledged that Greeks have been asked to make a lot of sacrifices, but the most difficult period is behind.
"Greece has a primary surplus this year for the first time in sixty years, and the surplus will be even bigger in 2015," he said. "We had to deal first with deficits and banks, because we got our lesson that growth with debt is not sustainable. I am convinced that the future of Europe and Greece will be good," he added.
