Potami leader agrees with appointment of top judge as PM
Potami leader Stavros Theodorakis agreed to appoint Supreme Court President Vassiliki Thanou as a caretaker prime minister, following a phone conversation with President Prokopis Pavlopoulos earlier on Thursday.
According to party sources, Pavlopoulos had called to brief Theodorakis on the result of the exploratory bid and announce that Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, ANEL leader Panos Kammenos and Communist Party leader Dimitris Koutsoumbas had refused to hold a meeting of the political leaders’ council.
Theodorakis responded that since three leaders have turned down the President’s proposal, a meeting would not make any sense.
