Following the scheduled meeting of Mr. Evangelos Venizelos with Mr. Kostas Simitis earlier today and just before the Deputy Prime Minister leave for Kilkis, a few minute took place in the office of the Prime Minister in Parliament.

Mr. Antonis Samaras and Mr. Evangelos Venizelos exchanged views in the shadow of the new deadlock of negotiations with lenders and the new teleconference this afternoon.

Mr. Venizelos will not be present in the new teleconference since he has to attend a scheduled trip to Kilkis for the inauguration of a new local hospital wing.

Before he leaves from Kilkis Mr. Venizelos is also expected to meet with the Eminence Metropolitan Goumenissis at 7 pm at the Youth Center in the region.
