evening, speaking after a meeting of the three coalition
government party leaders, which failed to achieve a breakthrough
in talks over the fate of the now closed down state broadcaster
ERT."Verdana","sans-serif";mso-bidi-font-family:Tahoma;color:#0F1419;mso-ansi-language:
Speaking before a joint meeting of his party's parliamentary group and
political council to consider latest developments, Venizelos clarified
that PASOK did not want early elections and stressed that neither does
the Greek people.
Venizelos threw himself in favour of the survival of the three-party
coalition government, saying that there should be no "surprises" between
its coalition partners neither "petty partisan behaviours," also calling
on DIMAR, the other junior partner of the coalition government, to join
the effort.
Venizelos further accused the New Democracy party of having opened a
Pandora's Box by its decision to shut down the state broadcaster ERT,
which in turn "raised concerns over the functioning of institutions
and democracy."
He added however that there have been some efforts on the part
of Prime Minister Antonis Samaras regarding a possible reopening
of the public radio and television, with about 2,000 of its
employees.font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";mso-bidi-font-family:Tahoma;color:#0F1419;
