Thank you, Yanis, for this address... it is healing just to hear some source of sanity.

[floydwilkes]

You, Yanis Varoufakis, make Greece proud. Her long lines of epic poets, artists, philosophers, gods, heroes and heroines must surely be proud of you as native son. I wish you godspeed in your destiny as a world champion and thought leader guiding us in times of great opportunity, peril and danger.  You are, Yanis Varoufakis, truly worthy.

I always felt that the people in control of society were at least competent albeit greedy and selfish. It’s becoming very apparent they are not even competent, they have no idea what they’re doing, outside of filling their pockets.

Besides the direct, common sense, no-nonsense approach we've come to expect from this man, I, as a mother-tongue English teacher, am continually blown away by his command of the English language; which he speaks better than many mother-tongue speakers!

Thank you Yanis for the calm wisdom you continue to share with us. The best thing each if us can do is live within our means, and this is only a start. This would lead to not borrowing money. Not borrowing money would help to reduce and stabilize the cost of everything we need to live our lives. The rich would be diminished, and the rest of us would be enhanced. Let the revolution begin...

A very clever, honest man. If only more politicians were like him.

Thank you Yanis, for everything you do. It feels very depressing being in the left in the Balkans, and it's very inspiring seeing intellectuals arise from shithole countries like ours. Respect from a fellow Albanian neighbor.

Well said Yanis. I live in Spain. As part of the emergency measures introduced here, as I'm sure you know, the government is to requisition the resources of the private health sector. I'm no huge supporter of the PSOE but I think in this emergency that is a good move.

This man is brilliant. He is a truly independent thinker with the courage to disagree with and confront the "establishment" and all its cronyism, deceit, lies and greed. A voice for the people. The world needs leaders like this. I have today subscribed to this channel. Thank you Yannis Varoufakis.

[lesleyburgon]

Thank you so much. Your wisdom and clarity is always a breath of fresh air.

[samacumen]

I am a non-European, but you are my rolemodel from Greece. You talk facts. Thank you for the video @Yanis.

[ginatorres]

Thank you. I agree with you, and I give my in Barcelona many people are following you. Expecting a new video soon!!! Saludos.

[kolitmas]

Yanis Varoufakis I like your podcasts so much. You should be the Persident of the European Union.

[PavFun]

Gianni, you are indeed a voice of reason. I hope you make a further impact on Greece putting systems and policy's in place that can gradually improve the lives of Greek citizens.Thank you for posting online as it is great to hear from you but also for your participation in the Greek Parliament. I hope you are managing to sway a few minds in there as life is still tough in Greece as you know since the 2008 crisis. Wishing you and your family well and to be safe and health during this current corona virus period.

[robertgray]

Thanks Yanis for coming out and discussing the current issues. A voice of reason is calming at a time like this. I also agree with almost everything you have said. I just hope there is some real positive change, and the misanthropes don’t win this battle, so that we won’t look back in 10 years and think that Trump wasn’t that bad compared to now, like we currently do looking back at the Bush years.

[Joneight]

Many thank. Your video is an oasis in the darkness and pessimism we experience these days. Take care of your loved ones and please we need more of this :D

[mr.t.]

Yanis the main man! Reading your book 'talking to my daughter' during the coronavirus and I have already learned a lot.

[anagois]

Thank you Yanis for helping us to access information and knowledge in economy issues affecting us!

[ledgeastend]

Straight talking with easily understandable solutions. If I could vote for you I would. UK resident.
This total disregard for the many to benefit the few has gotta go.

Fantastisch, zo hoort het tegaan. Bedankt Diem 25, great, this is the way to go. Thank you, people of Diem 25.
