 Story highlights Eurozone financial leaders will meet Monday in Brussels 
 
 Papandreou won't be head of the new government, a statement says 
 
 He and opposition leader Samaras will talk Monday to plot details 
 
 The deal hinges on Greece approving a 130 billion euro bailout deal 
 
 Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou will meet Monday with the leader of the country's main opposition party to discuss who will become the nation's next prime minister -- a day after an announcement that Papandreou he will step down amid the country's financial crisis. But the conservative leader of the main opposition New Democracy party said Sunday no talks between the two parties were taking place and Antonis Samaras also reiterated his stance that Papandreou must resign before any coalition discussions can take place. Government spokesman Elias Mossialos told state television Sunday that talks have begun and the name of the new prime minister should be known by Monday, in which case Papandreou would resign. The deal would wipe out 100 billion euros in Greek debt, half of what it owes to private creditors, and includes a promise of 30 billion euros to help the public sector pare its debts -- making the whole package worth a total of 130 billion euros ($178 billion). Samaras made his latest comments after a brief meeting with President Karolos Papoulias, a mainly ceremonial figure who has called for collaboration between the two main parties.
– Greek PM George Papandreou will step down as soon as a new coalition government is formed, CNN reports. As the Greek Cabinet met a second day today in a last-ditch effort to avoid bankruptcy, the government issued a statement saying the meeting would be the last presided over by the embattled Papandreou, whose exit has often been predicted in recent days. Leading candidates to replace him include Petros Moliviatis and Loukas Papaimos; the new government will have a shelf life of four months, followed by elections in the spring. "We need to have an agreement during the course of today for a new coalition government, and we need to specify by tomorrow, Monday, the name of the new prime minister," said a spokesman for Papandreou's PASOK party. "I can sense the agony of the Greek people," said opposition leader Antonis Samaras, adding that "everything will take its course" when Papandreou resigns and "everything else is negotiable."
