EDITORIAL
Solid front in the face of a crisis
 It is a positive sign that the various political forces in Greece decided to put aside their differences and form a common front on the issue of protecting depositors. The speech by opposition PASOK leader George Papandreou, and everything he said about backing the government's decision to open an umbrella over the credit system, shows a sense of responsibility. We all know that there is no room for petty political squabbling in the midst of a global financial storm, which requires nothing less than a sober, concerted approach.
