A very difficult year is ahead of us. We must continue our efforts with decisiveness, to stay in the euro, to make sure we do not waste the sacrifices and do not turn the crisis into an uncontrolled and disastrous bankruptcy.
Lucas Papademos
The financial crisis in our country is not a passing storm. Given the size of the problems, our national effort will not be completed in 2012. It will take many years and will require the efforts and insistence of several governments.
Lucas Papademos
The new co-operation government will do the best it can to address the country's problems, and I believe that with the co-operation of all - and the new government stresses this - and the unity of all, we will achieve that.
Lucas Papademos

Lucas Papademos
Dealing with Greece's problems will be more difficult if Greece is not a member of the eurozone.
Lucas Papademos
And judging what is appropriate or not appropriate for a country, I think it is important in particular in judging what is the appropriate economic policy framework, one should take into account the overall political environment and the institutional framework within which economic policy operates.
Lucas Papademos
Our position in Europe is not negotiable. The Greek people will defend it by all means. But participation in the euro involves rules and obligations, which we must consistently meet. Greece belongs to Europe and Europe cannot be envisaged without Greece.
Lucas Papademos
So it won't be a surprise when the Greek default actually happens and we expect it one way or the other to be relatively soon.
Lucas Papademos
Our eurozone partners have made it clear: The choice is between staying in or getting out of the eurozone.
Lucas Papademos
I thank all of those deputies who supported the government and gave it a vote of confidence. I believe each of those votes represents a responsible decision to avoid placing our country's membership of the eurozone in danger.
Lucas Papademos
I take office during the most difficult moment in the country's recent history. The country can be saved - it's up to us. I think it is obvious for those who support this government to undertake the commitment and ensure that our country's euro membership is not endangered.
Lucas Papademos
The government is determined to continue the process of fiscal consolidation and structural reform in order to secure sound public finances and improve the country's international competitiveness.
Lucas Papademos
Greece could default on its debts and even exit currency bloc if it cannot deliver reforms.
Lucas Papademos
I think achieving a higher fiscal stability is also a very important condition for restoring an environment which is conducive to growth.
