An overwhelming majority of 80.9 percent of respondents want Greece to remain in the eurozone at all costs, while 77.8 percent are in favour of amendment of the Memorandum and 66.4 percent prefer the formation of a cooperation government, according to the results of a GPO opinion poll presented on private Mega television station on Tuesday night.

According to GPO chief Takis Theodorikakos, the poll was conducted by telephone on a sampling of 1,600 citizens from may 25 to 29.

To a question on what the respondents want to emerge from the June 17 repeat general elections, 66.4 percent of the respondents replied "a cooperation government", against 30.3 percent who wanted a "self-sufficient government", while 3.3 percent declined response.

Asked about their degree of interest in the elections, 82.7 percent of the respondents replied "very much", 17 percent replied "not so much", while 0.3 percent declined comment.

To a question on whether there should be repeat elections, 25.3 percent of the respondents replied "yes", 72.4 percent replied "no", that a coalition government should have been formed after the inconclusive May 6 general elections, while 0.3 percent declined comment.

Asked whether Greece should remain in the euro at all cost, 80.9 percent of the respondents replied "yes" and 18.0 percent replied "no", while 1.1 percent declined response. In an earlier opinion poll, in February, 2012, the corresponding percentages were 77.2 percent, 21.1 percent and 1.7 percent respectively.

To a follow-up question of whether continuation in the euro 'at all cost' means acceptance of the implementation of the Memorandum as a condition, 52.4 percent of the respondents said "yes", 44.5 percent said "no", and 3.1 percent declined comment.
