I Kathimerini, March 24, 2015

Alexis Tsipras and Angela Merkel look like they were having a hard time understanding each other on Tuesday’s front page of Greek daily I Kathimerini. The German chancellor was welcoming the Greek prime minister in Berlin — his first visit to Germany since taking office in January — as Tsipras was seeking financial help from Germany for cash-strapped Greece.

In spite of their differences and the political tensions over how to keep Greece afloat, Merkel and Tsipras vowed to “melt the ice,” as I Kathimerini“s headline reads and work together to help resolve the European crisis.
