Re: This sounds like bullshit (4.00 / 2)
I'd very much like to see the expanded version. We have several claims here:

  • The IMF proposed a haircut plan

  • At a G7 finance minister meeting Geithner vetoed that plan

  • Osborne "spoke up" for the Irish. He was the only one to do so.

  • The ECB insisted on full repaiment.

    • The only positions we get are the US and UK. No one else had an opinion?
