Most Greeks want to see the terms of an international financial rescue revised even as they acknowledge that failing to abide by them may lead to the country exiting the euro, an opinion poll showed.
Seventy-seven percent of the 1,600 Greeks surveyed by GPO SA said the terms of the bailout should be revised. More than half, or 52.4 percent, said they should stay in the euro if they were forced to accept the current austerity measures tied to the bailout, while 44.5 percent said they shouldn’t. Eighty-one percent said they wanted to remain in the single currency. The survey was broadcast on Athens-based Mega TV today.
