A full scale meeting focusing on the vote of expatriates takes place today at the Foreign Ministry which will be presided by Foreign  Minister, Dora Backoyianni, and participated by political party representatives who have been given copies of the government's related proposal. According to information, PASOK, KKE and SYRIZA are expected to negatively respond to the proposed legislation while the Popular Orthodox Rally Party (LAOS) is expected to have a positive stance on the legislation.
From the International Trade Fair in Thessaloniki, Prime Minister Kostas Karamanlis reiterated his commitment for the effort to be completed in 2008 but reminded however that it's voting depended on an increased majority of 200 MP's meaning the approval of the main opposition PASOK party.
The legislation will provide expatriate Greeks, the opportunity to vote from their countries of residence beginning 2011, once they have registered in the special catalogues at their local embassies and consulates.
