Yanis Varoufakis on the Referendum

July 1, 2015 - Scott Hewitt


An interesting press conference in which Yanis Varoufakis discuss the government action in calling a referendum due to his lack of mandate to except the then current (27/6/15) proposal but also interestingly responding to the fact while he may not have a mandate to except it the nation could choose to do so.

It is refreshing to hear a leader discuss the idea of mandate and the need for a majority one.
