[01] FinMin says article claiming he taped Eurogroup meeting 'a fairytale'
ANA/MPA---Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis on Thursday rejected a New
York Times article claiming that he taped Eurogroup's meeting in Riga
and called it "fairytales, fairytales, fairytales".
Upon his arrival at the Finance Ministry, Varoufakis also said that
"after so many weeks of leaks and absurd lies of what has been allegedly
said in there, I have proved in practice my absolute respect to the
confidentiality of all these talks and you understand what I'm saying".
Asked if he is concerned for the economy, Varoufakis stated that "a
country's minister that is in the middle of such harsh negotiations
should be afraid otherwise he is dangerous. We feel fear but we are
not frightened."
