Confusion in Greece as party talks stall
2 Views • Aug 27, 2012
Description
The announcement of the delay came hours after George Papandreou, the outgoing Greek prime minister, said that the country's main parties had reached an agreement on forming a unity government tasked with tackling the country's debt crisis.
Antonis Samaras, the opposition leader, blamed Papandreou's governing Socialists for the delay after three days of talks, saying the constitution demanded the ruling party take the initiative in naming a candidate to head a new government.
Al Jazeera's Andrew Simmons reports from Athens.
