“Wah! We overspent and borrowed money, now we don’t want to make cuts or pay it back! Wah!”

No, the German Nazis invaded Greece occupied the country and robbed the central bank.

If that is a debt, it Germany cannot default.

The central question in the report is that of forced loans the Nazi occupiers extorted from the Greek central bank beginning in 1941.

Well it’s awful suspicious that it’s coming out after all this time, when the Greek welfare state is on the verge of collapse.

The Germans protected the Greeks from the communists until the Brits could take over in 1944; the Brits then passed that responsibility to the Americans who managed to keep the lid on things until 1974.
