Résumé :

Greece sustained a serious deterioration of its public accounts in 2010. It had to seek external help from its partners in the euro zone and the IMF to be able to continue to borrow on the markets. One can wonder why all the legal provisions of the Lisbon treaty were not implemented to help Greece. The use of some articles seems to have been ignored. A more legal and less political interpretation of the treaty would have allowed to save time in the elaboration of a Greek support scenario and would have undoubtedly helped avoid suspicion arising on the soundness of the euro zone.
