Despite two bailout packages worth €240bn from its Eurozone partners and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the country’s long-term financial future remains uncertain. However, last week, the country managed to secure a four-month extension of its financial rescue when its Eurozone partners approved a reform plan.

 

The focus of this week’s debate is on Greece and whether it should default on its debt?

 

These are the statements to be debated:

• A Greek default would be the quickest route to economic recovery.

• A default by Greece would have a negative domino effect on other Eurozone countries.

• Defaulting would cause chaos in Greece.

 

 

Participants will be required to clearly state whether they are ‘for’ or ‘against’ the statement and provide their supporting arguments for the same.
