Greece's PASOK Ready to Create Coalition With Syriza
ATHENS (Sputnik) On Sunday, leader of the Greek Syriza party Alexis Tsipras confirmed the forming of a coalition with the ANEL party following Syriza's victory in the Greek snap parliamentary elections.

"Yes, we are ready, now everything depends on Russia," Terence Quick said, answering a question on whether the newly formed government would continue the Turkish Stream construction.

With a renewed mandate to strengthen its policy decisions, the Syriza-led government will support long-term cooperation with Moscow in the investment sector, Quick added.

"This time we will have a stable government that will stay in power for four years, so that we can work together with Russia in the investment sector. This time we have to do it," he told Sputnik.
