    [03] K. SIMITIS: NO TO EARLY ELECTIONS

    Athens, 6 May 2002 (18:31 UTC+2)

    Scenarios concerning early elections were refuted by Prime Minister Kostas Simitis in statements he made in Rhodes.

    He characterized them as futile hopes of certain individuals, and observed that no serious country would hold elections at a time when it is being called to make serious decisions on important issues. He asked for the introversion to cease, for people to stop concerning themselves with small political and party issues, instead of looking in the direction Greece is moving in.

    The Prime Minister warned Turkey that it should comply with EU suggestions in order to achieve accession, while he expressed his certainty concerning Cyprus' accession to the EU, despite any problems created by Ankara.
