Syriza to meet other parties after election win
A radical left-wing party vowing to end Greece’s painful austerity programme won a historic election victory, setting the stage for a showdown with the country’s international creditors that could shake the eurozone.
Alexis Tsipras, leader of the communist-rooted Syriza party, immediately promised to end the “five years of humiliation and pain” that Greece has endured since an international bailout saved it from bankruptcy in 2010.
