I said a lot more than that, but of course you have to copy and paste to make it look like it was even a contest. You lose, shitstain. You should be used to that feeling by now.
Russia isn't bailing out anybody. Long story short, they don't have the money. They've got financial problems of their own. They might cut a deal for some discount natural gas or some such bullshit, but the idea of them satisfying Greece's debt is not going to happen. And one could argue that the Russians like to stir up shit wherever they can, and that's true, but in this case they can't afford to. An EU that is in trouble does nothing to benefit Russia economically.

Not to mention Greece is already in bed with Russia's military, as they have purchased and use the Russian made S-300 Air Defense System in which the Russian military maintains for them, just renewed their partnership this year.
Is it because they are part of the EU that every one here thinks they are not already in bed with Russia militarily? I can assure you, the folks in the EU definitely knew he went to Russia a couple of months ago to negotiate a continuing military contract with Putin, and they didn't like it one bit.
I'm not saying it is going to happen, but it is FAR from an empty threat with "no links".
