"Greece, which in the past has suffered from similar natural disasters,
fully understands the pain of the people struck by the earthquake, as
well as the effort -- both emotionally and financially -- now needed to
overcome such a disaster ... On behalf of the Greek government and in
expressing the feelings of the Greek people, allow me to convey to you
our solidarity," he said.
