www.euronews.net The Greek prime minister has met the European Union president amid calls for Athens to do even more to tackle its financial crisis. On Wednesday IMF and EU officials gave the green light for Greece to receive the next instalment of a massive bailout fund, but with a must-do-better note attached. Euro zone ministers are also considering asking banks to accept bigger losses on their holdings of Greek debt.
Senior banker Lucas Papademos has been officially named as Greece's new prime minister, after four days of intense talks to form a coalition government. The interim government aims to approve a new 130 billion euro financial aid deal and maintain the country's position in the eurozone. The 64-year-old former vice president of the European Central Bank was named Thursday to head a coalition backed by the governing Socialists and the opposition conservatives that is expected to operate until early elections in February. Papademos will replace outgoing Prime Minister George Papandreou, midway through the Socialists' four-year term.

Today Greek Prime Minister Costas Kara-man-lees wrapped up his visit to Ankara. The Prime Minister started the second day of his Ankara trip by visiting A-ta-turk's mausoleum despite harsh reactions by some Greek opposition. /// Karamanlis on the second day of his historic visit was received by the Turkish president Abdullah Gul. The guest Prime Minister and Turkish President had a minor accident during the press conference. After shaking hands, the two went to sit back in their chair but instead almost fell onto the floor. The foreign Ministers held their leaders by the arm to prevent them from falling off. The most meaningful visit of Karamanlis was in the morning. Karamanlis and the Greek Foreign Minister Bakonayanni and the Greek delegates visited Turkiye's founder's mausoleum despite Greek opposition's oversensitive remarks and warnings. Historically, Greek extreme nationalists do not have favorable feelings about the founder of Turkiye since he has a major role in ending Megalo Idea planning to invade the Aegean side of the Turkish peninsula. Karamanlis noted the importance of peace and cooperation in his message which he recorded in the visitor's book at the mausoleum. The Greek Prime Minister held talks with the Republican People's Party leader, Deniz Baykal after visiting the mausoleum on Thursday. Baykal gave Karamanlis a painting of Greek leader Venizelos and Ataturk. Baykal said the dialog and the friendship between the two leaders should be sustained at <b>...</b>

Last week Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou proposed a referendum vote on the newest EU bailout package. This vote would have, in effect, given the citizens of Greece the power to determine their own fate. If the people would've voted "no" to the package, Greece would have defaulted on their debt and pulled out of the Euro. This would've forced any bank with Greek debt on their books to have to write the assets down or off completely, likely driving many other EU countries into bankruptcy. France only cares about saving Greece because their own banks hold a lot of Greek sovereign debt, which means their banking system would become insolvent if Greece defaults and French banks have to devalue the assets on their books. As for how this may impact the US, the biggest insurers (derivatives players) of Greek debt are Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan Chase, and Citigroup...all of which will suffer great losses on a Greek default. Unfortunately, the referendum vote was cancelled due to pressure from Greece's creditors. Greece can no longer fully practice democracy due to their debt to international bankers. Next EU countries to look for to default are Italy, Spain, and Portugal.

FROM LATEST INTERVIEW: eu.greekreporter.com FYROM's former PM Ljubco Georgievski blasted his successor to the presidency of the currently rulling "VMRO-DPMNE" party, Nikola Gruevski, in a recent interview to the Radio Free Europa. The former FYROM's PM attacked the "antiquization" policy of Gruevski and admitted publicly the fact that Gruevski attempts to rewrite Greek history. "This history about Ancient Macedonia which they want today to impose Us as a state policy, i call it a caricature of History, because its about unrelated events," Georgievski stated. "Our people is bombarded daily with Lies, Misinformation, documentaries where we see that Greek History has became Ours and is presented alike. For me its obvious that there is a clear distinction of the so-called ancient history of Macedonia and Slavic History.
