Annotation
The Greek government decided to call a referendum on the creditors' 25 June 2015 proposals. It is effectively a crucial referendum that will influence Greece's future in the Eurozone. The referendum suffers from a number of important problems, but the government is reluctant to back down. The policy brief discusses the three possible options and their implications: no referendum, the 'yes' vote prevails, the 'no' vote prevails. The author argues that the implications affect all Europe, and that the Greek problem needs to be studied in a new light.


Policy Recommendations:
1.The 'yes' vote should be encouraged, but discreetly.
2.The Greek crisis can only be overcome if political and historical parameters are also taken into account.
3.European leaders need to maintain an open mind while continuing to pursue the ideal of a united Europe.
