From an Article on Fiona Hyslop's recent visit to the EU commissioner  reported on  30/01/2017

The important information from the article is......
"An independent Scotland would join EU queue behind Albania, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey." 

(So Scotland if it were to vote for Independence WOULD have to leave the EU and queue up to rejoin. It would have to also reduce  its financial deficit to  3%   to do so from its current 10% level. This could take 5 to 10 years to re-negotiate)

Greece too has faced real hardships dealing with the Austerity forced on it via the EU to try to get its economy back to a point that is sustainable, that process has included rioting on the streets along with services and pension cuts.
