Among other the announcement continues by saying that the country should elect with consensus in February for the new President of the Republic.

The country needs stability and national time to regain its rightful place in Europe and implement comprehensive the national reconstruction plan.

Further, the announcement notes the implicit assurance made by Mr. Papandreou that he will implement his obligations arising from his status as a member of PASOK until the end .

Mr. Papandreou is obviously entitled and must formulate his views in the above organizational and political contexts that have shaped the collective bodies of PASOK.

But the framework in which the democratic party of PASOK moves and the primary context in which our country operates, is something that we will not allow anyone to disturb.
