ATHENS, Greece, Jumada II 21, 1433, May 12, 2012, SPA - Greek President Karolos Papoulias has called the leaders of Greece's political parties to meetings on Sunday, in a last-ditch effort to broker a deal for a coalition government. Papoulias' office announced Saturday that the president would meet initially with the heads of the three parties that won the most votes in Sunday's inconclusive elections - the conservative New Democracy, radical left-wing Syriza and socialist PASOK. He will then meet individually with the leaders of the other four parties that won enough votes for parliamentary seats, according to a report of the Associated Press. If Papoulias fails to broker a coalition agreement, Greece will have to hold new elections next month. --SPA 15:04 LOCAL TIME 12:04 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/997251
