    The Greek population is among the most Russian-friendly in the EU and the useful idiots or foreign observers in the Crimea and the Donbas were from the extreme European left and right. The current Greek coalition, made by parties with extreme elements from the respective ends of the spectrum, should find relative rare common ground over that aspect of foreign policy.

    Possibly a bargaining chip for the far more important rounds with the EU on austerity, but who knows?

    Both Greek parties have close ties to Dugin and Russia/Russians have over
    31B USDs in Cyprus banks---one of the largest money washing capitals in the West. One of their Greek banks that went under and lost all Russian accounts was in total ownership (hidden) of Russian oligarchs.
