Greek premier ousted as coalition rebels vote to oust Novas
In Athens a large majority of Center Union supporters voted to bring down Prime Minister George Athanassiadis Novas, signaling he cannot survive a confidence vote likely August 9. The ruling party split, with 142 of 171 voting to topple Novas, leaving him with only 29 potential votes from his own MPs. The crisis follows King Constantine’s July firing of Papandreou, triggering protests and fueling talk of a third force solution led by Stephanopolous. Over 5,000 people greeted Papandreou at the party meeting.
