"Greece must balance austerity measures demanded by international lenders with growth if it wants to recover, U.S. President Barack Obama told visiting Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras in a meeting in the Oval Office of the White House on Aug. 8 where the Greek leader was making his most important stop during an eight-day swing to the United States.
Obama said Samaras must find a way to get people back to work, hours after the Greek statistical agency ELSTAT released a report showing the jobless rate set another record of 27.6 percent, some 64.9 -percent for those under 25."
