Summary/Abstract: Four months after the change of government in Greece the fiscal and economic situation of the country continues to deteriorate. The new left-right coalition government of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras is engaged in complex and controversial negotiations with its European partners and international creditors. The longer a compromise appears out of reach, the more the sword of Damocles looms large as regards a possible sovereign debt default. The contribution addresses the context in which the new government in Athens operates, its limited options for compromise and the increasing skepticism being articulated by its European partners.
