More and more observers see Greece reissuing the drachma, devaluing it and trying to rekindle economic growth in a couple of years—rather than sticking with the euro and enduring a decade of pain. - Jonathan Buck, Barrons - 11/02/2012
Greece should be allowed to take a “sabbatical” from the euro, and to reintroduce its own currency. The Greek drachma would fall sharply against the euro, which would boost the competitiveness of Greece’s export and tourism sectors. - Harvard University economics professor Kenneth Rogoff - 21/02/2012
Any decision to reintroduce a national currency (new Greek drachma) would ultimately be a political choice on the part of the Greek parliament - Standard Chartered Bank - 22/02/2012
