(Reuters) - Greek leftist leader Alexis Tsipras promised on Sunday that five years of austerity, humiliation and suffering imposed by international creditors were over after his Syriza party swept to victory in a snap election on Sunday. With about 60 percent of votes counted, Syriza was set to win 149 seats in the 300 seat parliament, with 36.1 percent of the vote, around eight points ahead of the conservative New Democracy party of Prime Minister Antonis Samaras. While a final result may not come for hours, the 40-year-old Tsipras is on course to become prime minister of the first euro zone government openly opposed to the kind of crippling austerity policies which the European Union and International Monetary Fund imposed on Greece as a condition of its bailout. Greece leaves behinds catastrophic austerity, it leaves behind fear and authoritarianism, it leaves behind five years of humiliation and anguish, Tsipras told thousands of cheering supporters gathered in Athens. European leaders have said Greece must respect the terms of its 240 billion euro bailout deal, but Tsipras campaigned on a promise to renegotiate the countrys huge debt, raising the possibility of a major conflict with euro zone partners. Tsipras said on Sunday he would cooperate with fellow euro zone leaders for a fair and mutually beneficial solution but said the Greek people came first. Our priority from the very first day will be to deal with the big wounds left by the crisis, he said. Our foremost priority is that our country and our people regain their lost dignity. Tsiprass campaign slogan Hope is coming! resonated with voters worn down by huge budget cuts and heavy tax rises during six years of crisis that has sent unemployment over 25 percent and pushed millions into poverty. With Greeces economy unlikely to recover for years, he faces enormous problems and his victory raises the prospect of tough negotiations with European partners including German Chancellor Angela Merkel. As thousands of flag-waving supporters hit the streets of Athens, some shedding tears of joy, Germanys Bundesbank warned Greece it needed reform to tackle its economic problems and the euro fell nearly half a U.S. cent. Tsipras has promised to keep Greece in the euro and has toned down some of his rhetoric but his arrival in power would mark the biggest challenge to the approach adopted to the crisis by euro zone governments. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Tsipras ios talking trash! Greece will jump out of the EURO-zone. In my opinion was this already planned when the came in the EURO-Zone with faked papers, and help from the criminal bank GOLDMAN SACHS. It is the end of the EURO. Greece was never, and will be never qualified for the EURO-zone. They have no industry, they have nothing with value for this zone! Goldman Sachs planned this jump out of the EURO-zone already when they did the highly criminal act to write false papers for greece. And in the same time was thius Bank (I call it terror group) the watchdogs for the EURO, and was responible to check that no country comes in the zone. What is worse, this pieces of shit, Goldman Sachs, is at this moment colsulting and advising the EURO-zone-countries to help to rescue the EURO. At the same time, Goldman Sachs advise its customers to bet against the EURO! Why is are in every position in the EURO-zone a former Goldman Sachs soldier working? Are they really former??? I doubt it ... I guess that they are still hidden workers for Goldman Sachs and went in this jobs only to sabotage the EURO. The currently running financial World War III (A war with money) was started from Goldman Sachs. Everything was calculated. I bet that they expected even teh change of political power in Greece. If Lucifer would exist, his name would be GOLDMAN SACHS!!! I PREDICT THAT THE EURO WILL COLLAPSE 2016 ... and this will result in riots and international conflicts. I guess that this was the reason that the Bundestag made a law that the German Army can be used inside Germany agianst its own people. The Bundestag is the German Parlament, that means that they are the enemioes of the common people! This bunch of criminal cockroaches are only there to leech and steal public money.
