The criteria were first met and then other factors were taken into conisideration like the CY problem along with these criteria! It was up to EU to decide not Greece!

Giving all the credit to Greece and ignoring that other factors ,like the Copenhagen Criteria for entry played a crucial role is a misleading picture.
