Besieged at home and abroad by critics blasting his idea for a referendum on accepting more international bailout loans to stave off bankruptcy, Prime Minister George Papandreou abandoned the idea and offered the chance to build an interim coalition government.
I kod kuće i u inostranstvu okružen kritičarima koji žestoko napadaju njegovu ideju o održavanju referenduma o prihvatanju novih međunarodnih kredita spasa u cilju izbegavanja bankrotstva, premijer Jorgos Papandreu odustao je od te ideje i ponudio šansu da se formira privremena koaliciona vlada.
