Greece's top priority is to reduce government debt while pursuing policies that also promote economic growth, prime minister George Papandreou said on Tuesday.

"Our first duty in these conditions is to save the economy, to reduce debt while seeking the most just solutions that protect as much as possible those on lower incomes and the middle-class," Papandreou said during a cabinet meeting to discuss tax and wage reforms.
