German Distillery Is Unsympathetic To Greece's Debt Issue

RENEE MONTAGNE, HOST:

Guten Morgen. I'm Renee Montagne. Germany boasts Europe's strongest economy and has put tons of money into bailouts for Greece.

In response, one Greek politician pointed out the Greeks were the first to understand dark humor. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
