Uz strahovanja da bi se kriza mogla preliti na druge članice eurozone, kabinet premijera Georgea Papandreoua predstavio je ranije ove godine četverogodišnji plan mjera štednje, obećavši da će ove godine smanjiti deficit na 8,7% BDP-a i svesti ga na limit EU do kraja 2012.
Amid fears that the crisis could spill over to other members of the Eurozone, Prime Minister George Papandreou's cabinet presented a four-year austerity plan earlier this year, pledging to cut the deficit to 8.7% of GDP this year and bring it to below the EU limit by the end of 2012.
