The country needs someone with experience and determination to make tough decisions. All the money aside, it is important that Greece restore its reputation.

The vast majority of Greeks accept the need for reform and want to keep our country inside the euro zone.

We only have a Plan A. The acceptance and full implementation of the existing plan, the so-called Plan A, is the best solution for Greece, for the euro zone and also for creditors and holders.

Europe and the euro zone have no reason, rationally, to push Greece out of the euro. But this is a system in which many parties, many countries, many governments, many electorates participate and we could have events which, rationally, are not controllable.

I am the head of the Socialists, but the party is not my property.

Voters will decide how they want to be governed.
