(circa 320 BC) at the re-opened Archaeological Museum of Vravrona
(Brauon), 50 km east of Athens, Greece, 14 December 2009. The renovated
museum re-opened in August 2009 at the archeological site, well-known
during Classical Antiquity as the place of worship for Vravronia
(Brauon) Artemis, the mythical goddess of nature and
fertility.ANA-MPA/ORESTIS PANAGIOTOU
[02] Finance Minister in Berlin
Finance Minister George Papaconstantinou will hold closely watched
talks in Britain, France and Germany this week with those countries'
economy and finance ministers, while also meeting with representatives
of institutional investors, part of Athens' recently stepped up efforts
to outline its positions on slashing the double-digit Greek budget
deficit and a ballooning public debt.
Papaconstantinou will meet on Tuesday in Berlin with German Finance
Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble before departing for Paris to meet with his
French counterpart Christine Lagarde.
On Wednesday, the top Greek minister will be in London, where he will
have a series of meetings with institutional investors and the press.
Finally, on Thursday morning he is scheduled to have talks with
Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer Alistair Darling. He will return
to Germany again, this time to Frankfurt, for another series of
meetings with institutional investors.
