On Monday 7th May, a day after the French and Greek elections, I was asked to comment on both these momentous results first by Amy Goodman, of Democracy Now, and a little later that day by Christiane Amanpour, CNN International. Both interviews covered quite a lot of ground and departed from the usual epidermic coverage we are used to.
- Amy Goodman (Democracy Now): A Political Implosion – Anti-austerity parties win in French and Greek elections
- Christiane Amanpour (CNN International): French Austerity Showdown
For the transcripts of the two interviews (kindly provided by the channels), click CNN –Amanpour Show – 7th May 2012 and Democracy Now, 7th may 2012.
