Greece’s government criticized demands from the European Union and International Monetary Fund for sales of state assets to raise 50 billion euros ($67 billion).
“The behavior of the representatives of the EU, IMF and ECB during yesterday’s press conference was unacceptable,” government spokesman George Petalotis said in a statement today, referring to the European Central Bank. “The only agent responsible for these decisions is the Greek government. We take orders only from the Greek people.”
