[01] Samaras chairs broad ND meeting
AMNA--A broad meeting was chaired on Monday morning by main opposition
New Democracy (ND) leader Antonis Samaras with the participation of
top ranking party officials to set out the framework of Sunday night's
agreement for a new government.
According to sources, Samaras stressed that the destabilisation of
Greece's relations with the EU that would have resulted from prime
minister George Papandreou's handlings was the reason that led to his
decision on Sunday to "sit at the same table" with Papandreou.
Samaras explained that the new government would be of a limited mission
and time, with the sole purpose of managing the results of the October 26
eurozone summit decisions and to lead the country to general elections,
with the simultaneous removal of Papandreou from the prime ministership.
