ATHENS, Greece (AP) - Greece has enough money to pay pensions, salaries and bondholders through mid-November, the finance minister said Tuesday, as global markets sank on worries that a messy default could bring down European banks and trigger another global recession. . . .
"We're at the worst moment under the worst conditions. We're dependent on the help and lending of our institutional partners," Venizelos said.
"We have to make a super-human effort to win this wager of our times. There was this false sense of a standard of living that we, ourselves created," the minister stressed. "What's important now is to protect the country and to make clear and final decisions."
