The prime minister said the country had made "superhuman efforts" in the past 18 months, going up against difficulties both at home and abroad. He was scathing in his criticism of main opposition New Democracy and all those who persisted in adopting a querulous attitude to developments, including complaining about the results of the Eurozone summit".
