The government and the opposition in Greece should reach consensus over what they would do in regard to the verdict in the Hague to be pronounced in a difficult moment for Athens when the state will most probably be ruled by a transitional government. This is how, according to some home analysts, the recent statement of Greek Prime Minister Georgios Papandreou should be seen. He surprised the Greek public by mentioning before the Greek MPs the name issue and the expected verdict in the Hague in a time when the entire home and world public is waiting to see what the Greek Government’s next moves are going to be to financially stabilize the country, thus saving the euro zone, Dnevnik reports.

In his address in Parliament, Papandreou listed the name issue as one of the priorities the new government is going to face.

“We are soon going to receive the decision of the Court in the Hague regarding the name issue. I think the new government will have to take action to deal with the suggestions for resolution of this major issue,” Papandreou said in his address.
