| | | | |
| - | In a TV address, Lucas Papademos said Greece was "just a breath away from Ground Zero".

| + | Analysis |

| | | | |
| - | An old drachma note and a euro note
| + | This is in effect uncharted territory for the eurozone - a managed Greek default, with over 50% of the country's private debt being written off. This was not even being considered as an option several months ago. |
| - | Greece's economic reforms, which led to it abandoning the drachma as its currency in favour of the euro in 2002, made it easier for the country to borrow money.
| + | |
| | | | |
| - | The opening ceremony at the Athens Olympics | + | But the Greek people will be sceptical about this bailout. The deal that has been agreed will mean more austerity and spending cuts, and even more pain for Greeks. Many will be concerned that the new measures will kill off prospects of growth and lock the country into a spiral of recession. |
| - | Greece went on a big, debt-funded spending spree, including paying for high-profile projects such as the 2004 Athens Olympics, which went well over its budget.
| + | |
| | | | |
| - | A defunct restaurant for sale in central Athens
| + | Greeks say that the country's middle classes who have worked hard and pay their taxes are, unfairly, bearing the brunt of a crisis they did not create. They feel Greece's notorious corrupt politicans and wealthy Greeks who evaded tax are to blame. |
| - | The country was hit by the downturn, which meant it had to spend more on benefits and received less in taxes. There were also doubts about the accuracy of its economic statistics.
| + | |
| | | | |
| - | A man with a bag of coins walks past the headquarters of the Bank of Greece
| + | The deal provides for the presence of EU monitors of Greece's economic management as some members doubt Greece's commitment to its spending pledges. |
| - | Greece's economic problems meant lenders started charging higher interest rates to lend it money. Widespread tax evasion also hit the government's coffers.
| + | |
| | | | |
| - | Workers in a rally led by the PAME union in Athens on 22 April 2010
| + | Within the next two months, Greece will also have to pass legislation giving priority to debt repayments over the funding of government services. |
| - | There have been demonstrations against the government's austerity measures to deal with its debt, such as cuts to public sector pay and pensions, reduced benefits and increased taxes.

| - | Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou at an EU summit in Brussels on 26 March 2010
| + | |
| - | The EU, IMF and European Central Bank agreed 229bn euros ($300bn; �190bn) of rescue loans for Greece. Prime Minister George Papandreou quit in November 2011 after trying to call a referendum.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Greece's problems have made investors nervous, which has made it more expensive for other European countries such as Portugal to borrow money.
| + | |
| - | Eurozone leaders are worried that if Greece were to default, and even leave the euro, it would cause a major financial crisis that could spread to much bigger economies such as Italy and Spain.

| - | Lucas Papademos
| + | |
| - | Under Prime Minister Lucas Papademos, Greece is trying to negotiate a big write-off of private debts and secure a second bail-out of 130bn euros ($170bn, �80bn) before a 20 March deadline.

| - | "The social cost of this programme is limited in comparison with the economic and social catastrophe that would follow if we didn't adopt it," he said.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Savings would be lost, the government would be unable to pay wages or salaries, and imports of fuel, medicine and machinery would be disrupted, he added.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Earlier, Greek conservative leader Antonis Samaras said all his party's MPs must vote in favour of the bailout law.
| + | |

| - | * liberalisation of labour laws
| + | |
| - | * lowering the minimum wage by 20% from 751 euros a month to 600 euros

Eurozone finance ministers have agreed a second bailout for Greece after marathon talks in Brussels.
