Whilst what you say is true - what did you expect them to do ?
i expected them to not play such a fast and loose game with their economic prospects, not to draw red-lines that would never be acceptable, not to play hardball on negotiations when needing another bailout and, when trying to call the bluff of the EU, not run back afterwards with their tail between their legs nullifying the whole premise of the vote. they've made themselves weaker, they could have agreed to all the terms on offer on 26th and been in a better place than today. Syriza has spent 6mths trying to convince their people they can have no austerity and stay in the Eurozone, now they are facing a future with austerity and being exiled from the euro. fail.
