Greek Prime Minister Papandreou Under Pressure
International pressure on Greece has increased ahead of crisis talks later between its prime minister and the leaders of Germany and France.
George Papandreou’s surprise decision to call a referendum on the eurozone rescue plan agreed last week continued to unsettle financial markets.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel said she wanted “clarity” from Greece.
