Så har den første minister i Frau Merkel's regering meldt sig i den stadig voksende gruppe af tyske politikere, der anbefaler en græsk Euro-exit:
Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservative Interior Minister became the first member of her centre-right government to openly call for Greece to leave the eurozone in a magazine interview released on Saturday.
Hans-Peter Friedrich, a leader of the conservative Christian Social Union (CSU) that is the sister part of Merkel's Christian Democrats (CDU), told Der Spiegel news magazine Greece's chances of restoring its fiscal healthcare would be greater outside the euro.
While that has been the view of the Bavarian-based CSU and its chairman Horst Seehofer for months, Friedrich's comments nevertheless represented the first time a member of Merkel's cabinet had spoke openly about a Greek exit.
