Deb — genuinely, not fighting — they did not freeze your savings. They froze government accounts. Your money is fine and nobody in Brussels wants it.

And the "island of 56,000" is a country's territory. That is the whole point. Small is exactly why it mattered. If size decides, then my country is next in some other argument, and there are 1.3 million of us.
