MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Farage warned that the end of the European "project" is approaching in an address to a European Parliament plenary session in Strasbourg on the Greek crisis' issue.
"The European project has started to die. The plan has failed. The whole of the Mediterranean finds itself in the wrong currency," he said.
The pro-independence British politician said that the bailout programs offered by international lenders over the past five years "have been for banks, not people."
Farage hailed Sunday’s Greek vote as a way out of the euro, which he dubbed "a new Berlin Wall."
"It will be tough for the first few months, but with a devalued currency and friends all over the world you will recover," Farage said.
Speaking to Sputnik earlier this month, Farage voiced support for Greece's return to a "new" drachma, dubbing the crisis "an opportunity."
