An
opinion poll by the University of Macedonia for SKAI TV recorded that
three out of every four Greeks, 75%, believe that the new government is
determined to carry out its pre-election pledges while 72% of Greek
citizens support the government’s confrontation with the troika of
international creditors from the European Commission, European Central
Bank and International Monetary fund. The overwhelming support for the
government’s positions in the first poll carried out since the national
elections on January 25 did not just come from voters of the Radical
Left Coalition (SYRIZA) and Independent Greeks (ANEL) who make up the
coalition government, whose voters back their moves at 91.5% and 91%
respectively. 43% of those who voted for the conservative New Democracy
Party (ND) are also in favor of the government’s positions. Regarding a
Grexit, 35.5% of those questioned fear it, 9.5% hope for it and one in
three does not believe that it is a possibility.
