ECB Board Member Says Greece Can Raise $429 Billion Selling Assets; Greece’s Papandreou Vows to Press Austerity, Says Greece "Soon Out of the Woods"

Out of the Woods?

If Greece has a debt of 330 billion euros but can get rid of 300 billion euros of it by selling assets, then why does Greece need more aid? Has Greece all of a sudden turned a solvency problem back into a liquidity problem?

Color me skeptical.

If it was so easy, why hasn't it been done? I sense a bazooka bluff statement from Stark hoping to buy more time.
