Latvian PM: Greece should honor agreements
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
The Prime Minister of Latvia, Laimdota Straujuma, expressed on Wednesday her hope that the new Greek government will respect the agreements signed with the member-states of the Eurozone, as part of its bailout programme.
Latvia has just taken over the six-month rotating presidency of the European Council.
Speaking to journalists in Brussels, Straujuma noted that the EU will have to wait for the results of the elections in Greece and not rush to conclusions, as the country has "the right to choose its government freely."
The prime minister of Latvia also said reforms in Greece will have to continue since there’s no alternative solution to the implementation of its programme which has been agreed with its international lenders.
