"With this result, the Greek people have decided that their future lies inside the Eurozone", said Joseph Daul, Chairman of the EPP Group, welcoming the results of the Greek elections and the tight, but clear victory, of Nea Demokratia, an EPP sister party. He also congratulated the Chairman of Nea Demokratia, Antonis Samaras, whose top priority for the country was to remain in Europe's joint currency.

"The EPP Group fully supports Antonis Samaras and his efforts to form a coalition government with the participation of all the political parties that are committed to this goal. The positive vote, the efforts and sacrifices of the Greek people, combined with European solidarity, will soon bring the country back on to the path of economic recovery and growth", concluded the Chairman of the EPP Group, the most influential Group in the European Parliament.
