Puppet Papademos is in place, and as Athens caught fire on Sunday night he rather took my breath away - he said violence and destruction have no place in a democratic country.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not here to be a puppet, if you will.
Having a puppet is a way of having opposing opinions - I say a thing; he says the other.
I am not going to let Athens affect the rest of my life.
Democracy is dead in the Maldives.
I don't mind being called a puppet. But I'm the puppet of the people.
If I was a Greek citizen I'd be out there trying to bring down this monstrosity that has been put upon those people.
There is a danger in democracy itself.
A democracy is a volcano which conceals the fiery materials of its own destruction. These will produce an eruption and carry desolation in their way.
Let me tell you, I am nobody's puppet.
Greece isn't a democracy now it's run through a troika - three foreign officials that fly into Athens airport and tell the Greeks what they can and can't do.
