Greek Eurozone Withdrawal Could Cause Worldwide Repercussions - Comments

the right wing* sorry!

I'm from Portugal and, if Greece really withdrawls the Eurozone, we're also at risk. The government here has already asked for Troika's help and we're currently facing the same austerity mesaures as all the other "desperate" countries. I'm very worried because our governments pend more and more to the right. If we give up the Euro, there is a chance we feel like we should also leave the European Union and things will become very difficult if such thing happens. We got out of a dictatorship 38 years ago and A LOT of people still think it was better for the country to be ruled with an iron fist rather than Democracy. My country, along with the ones you mentioned, are facing the worst crisis in Europe and we've already seen riots happening in Greece and Italy. Violent riots. Portuguese people are sort of calm when it comes to protesting, but how much more austerity can we take?
