[01] Papandreou: 'Country will begin new page in 2007'
Main opposition PASOK leader George Papandreou on Monday reiterated his
position that the country will turn a "new page in 2007", saying the
objective shared by PASOK and the Greek people, namely, a fair society,
will be met.
Papandreou made the comments during a traditional New Year's rite in
the east Mediterranean country, whereby families, businesses and
various institutions cut a pound cake and hand out pieces -- one of
which contains a coin or charm -- to attendees for good luck in the
coming year.
Speaking during such a ceremony held at PASOK party's offices on
Monday, Papandreou thanked employees and cadres for their efforts,
while he expressed his confidence that results will be positive both
for the party and country.
