"Technocrat prime minister Lucas Papademos has taken office, saying his main priority is keeping Greece within the eurozone.
The new government of national unity is expected to move quickly to pass the latest bailout package.
Mr Papademos is heading a coalition cabinet filled with many of the same politicians who led the nation into crisis and pushed the eurozone to the brink of collapse.
At a colourful swearing-in ceremony, black-robed Orthodox priests, led by the Archbishop of Athens, blessed Mr Papademos and a cabinet dominated by the two main parties which had bickered for four days before agreeing on the crisis coalition."
