Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou and conservative opposition leader Antonis Samaras agreed on Sunday on a new coalition government to approve a euro zone bailout deal before calling elections, the office of the president said.
Papandreou will not lead the new administration, the office said in a statement issued after the European Union gave Greece 24 hours to explain how it will form a unity government to enact its 130 billion euro emergency funding deal.
The two men sealed the deal after talks led by President Karolos Papoulias, but it remained sketchy as they have yet to agree even on who will be the new prime minister to lead Greece through its economic, political and social crisis.
"Tomorrow there will be new communication between the prime minister and the opposition leader on who will be the leader of the new government," the statement said.
The statement also made no mention of how long the interim government would last before it calls early elections.
It is very hard to understand anything. It looks like even guys who made this deal do not know a fucking thing.
