New Democracy (ND) leader Vaggelis Meimarakis late on Monday said he is against possible early elections and expressed his intent to cooperate with the prime minister.

"Elections will be a catastrophe for the economy," Meimarakis said in an interview with public broadcaster adding that his party would win in case they were held.

Meimarakis put the blame for the agreement reached, which is recessionary, solely on Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and wondered how he signed it.

The main opposition leader did not reject the option of a wider cooperation government adding, however, that this is not something the prime minister wishes for.
