Germany won 2.9 billion euros from Greece's debt crisis

This is a profit derived from a series of transactions, including the already closed programme for the stock market, buying the programme for the purchase of bonds, which the European Central Bank had initiated (BQE) in 2010, while Germany and other eurozone members avoided Greece's default.

The amount also includes 400m euros in profits from the German State Development Bank KfW, approved in 2010.

Sven-Christian Kindler of the Green Party said the profits for Germany guaranteed a reduction of debt for Greece. He also added that it is unacceptable that the federal government “corrects balance in the budget of billions gained on interest rates from Greece”,
