The election result, according to the exit polls, is "a historic victory
for the Greek people that overwhelmingly opposed austerity," SYRIZA
sources said on Sunday adding that the result "sends a strong message
to Europe that can be the starting point of changes across Europe."
SYRIZA, the same sources said, "assumes the responsibility of forming a
social salvation government, of implementing the Thessaloniki programme
and negotiating in Europe."
Several party officials have already gathered at SYRIZA headquarters
waiting for party leader Alexis Tsipras.
