-Prime Minister George Papandreou Monday called for a popular referendum on a newly minted aid-and-debt deal for Greece, while also demanding a fresh vote of confidence in his embattled Socialist government in a high-stakes gamble to shore up flagging support.

"For the new [aid] agreement we have to go to a referendum," Papandreou told Socialist, or Pasok, party deputies, where he faces wavering support. "Do we want to adopt the new agreement? Or do we want to reject it?"

"This decision has to be adopted," he added. "If the Greek people do not want it to be implemented, very simply it won't be implemented."
