Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today.

Greece Crisis Talks Extended as Deal Remains Elusive

HeadlineJun 26, 2015

The standoff between Greece and European creditors continues with a deal still out of reach. Talks have been extended to the weekend, after both sides failed to reach an agreement on Thursday. Creditors want Greece to accept an austerity package in exchange for new loans that would help it avoid a default. Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said he’s confident the impasse can be resolved.

Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras: “I think that European history is full of disagreements, negotiations and then compromises. So, after the comprehensive Greek proposals, I am confident that we will reach the compromise that will help eurozone and Greece to overcome the crisis.”
