Mr Tsipras is now playing the Russian card with an icy ruthlessness, more or less threatening to veto fresh EU measures against the Kremlin as the old set expires. “We disagree with sanctions. The new European security architecture must include Russia,” he told the TASS news agency.

We're potentially looking at the collapse of the EU...or at least a major restructuring...and the destruction of NATO as we know it? Consider what a Russian naval base or basing rights for their airplanes on the southern tip of Europe would mean for the alliance!
Putin isn't even trying any more. Destiny is lining up for him now.
