PM George Papandreou's cabinet called on the business community in Greece to support the economy in order the country to be able to tackle the debt crisis.

"To Vima" newspaper says the Greek Ministry of Finance, following the example of its colleagues in Italy who have said that "they won't remain indifferent and watch their country being cash-strapped," gave "a final chance" to big investors to return their capitals to Greece, pledging in return not to check their assets by September 30.

"The government wants the support of businesses, but it's still a far cry from 'national business mobilisation', like the one in Italy," Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos has stated.

These are huge capitals, which can be found in foreign banks and they need to be invested in Greece, the Ministry of Finance urges.
