Prime Minister Antonis Samaras accompanied EU President Manuel Barroso and members of the College of Commissioners on a tour at the Acropolis Museum on Thursday. "Everyone who visits the museum is thrilled," Samaras said; "Professor Pantermalis gave us a high-quality tour. We saw the Caryatids and the restoration work being done on them. It is astonishing when you walk into a museum and see restorers working on the monument itself, right there; it is amazing," Samaras noted.

Samaras added that "Words do not count. Acts count, the strategy of exiting the crisis counts, this is our aim and we are doing that step-by-step, but steadily."
