Tsipras, Greek bailout and a promise! The Tie!

Now that Greece’s creditors have reached a landmark Eurozone Deal, the only remaining question was answered late Friday, Alexis Tsipras put on a tie.

 

That’s what the famously tie-less Greek prime minister had pledged to do if and when Europe came up with a viable solution to the country’s debt burden. In February 2015, just days after the left-leaning firebrand was swept to power pledging to tear up the country’s austerity plans, he was presented with a tie by Italy’s then-Prime Minister Matteo Renzi.
