Dimitri Papadimitriou

Stephen Sackur speaks to Dimitri Papadimitriou. With austerity biting deeper with every new release of European bailout money, is there any way out of the hole Greece is in?

HARDtalk's Stephen Sackur speaks to Greece's Economy Minister, Dimitri Papadimitriou. Greece's debt crisis and economic collapse used to be headline news, but not so much anymore.

Is there any way out of the hole Greece is in?
