Sadly, the emergency response was disorganised and, once again, the Greek government stands accused of being directionless and rudderless. The perception of Karamanlis as incompetent plagues every political satire show and fills every newspaper op-ed. Read more on Greek Elections and What They Mean for Greek Property Investment …
