Finance Minister Anders Borg says to the German newspaper Die Welt that Greece "must swallow the medicine we recommend them". Borg argues that Greece only chance to manage its debt crisis is through strong budget cuts. He points to the Baltic countries' crisis management as good examples and says that it is only through a budget surplus that Greece can expect help in restructuring the EU emergency loans or other exceptions. Borg especially points at the Greek pension system as a target for reform. (Die Welt)
