It's worth noting that RT, the propaganda arm of the Putin Russian government, has a strong interest in destabilisation of Western currencies. And of driving further rifts between Greece and both the EU and NATO.

Though you'll find substantively similar stories from other outlets: http://www.thestreet.com/story/13192504/1/stock-market-today...

Greeks withdrew more than 1.0 billion euros ($1.12 billion) from their savings accounts in one day, as they lack confidence that a deal will be reached.

Meanwhile, Russia has announced that it is considering providing emergency financing to Greece in return for "investment projects and trade"...and eventually full sovereignty, Mr. Putin?
