Europe has a moral obligation to help Greece, according to the French
president.
Nicolas Sarkozy made the statement on Friday after a meeting in Paris
with the Greek Prime Minister, as Europe struggles to find a united
voice on the bloc's debt crisis, Euronews reported.
"Greek people are determined to make the necessary changes," he said.
"We are making the sacrifices and we will live up to our part of the
decisions we've taken. Our responsibilities, making all the necessary
reforms, first of all because we want to change Greece and make Greece
a competitive, socially just and transparent country".
The French President says he will meet the German Chancellor in the
coming days to discuss Europe's handling of the crisis.
Nicolas Sarkozy said: "The failure of Greece would be a failure of the
whole of Europe. There is no other credible alternative. Yes, there
is a moral obligation of solidarity. But there is also an obligation
for economic solidarity. It is not possible to leave Greece behind."
Earlier this week Sarkozy said he was working on a plan for a new
Franco-German approach to solving the debt crisis, but he gave no
concrete details.
