MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Following 17 hours of marathon talks, Greece and Eurozone leaders reached a unanimous agreement on Monday to give the debt-ridden country a 86-billion-euro ($95 billion) financial lifeline over three years in exchange for further belt-tightening and major economic reforms.
"If I were a Greek politician I would vote against this deal. If I were a Greek 'no' voter I would be protesting in the streets. Mr. Tsipras's position is now at stake," Farage said, as quoted on the official UKIP website.
Greece has long been trying to unlock additional financial aid from its international creditors in order to avoid defaulting on its $350 billion debt.
On July 5, Greek voters rejected in a nationwide referendum a lender-proposed bailout plan. On July 9, Athens submitted to its creditors a revised debt settlement plan.
