Greek PM addresses parliament as protest continues

Greek prime minister George Papandreou has called on members of parliament to forge a "national accord" to deal with the country's debt crisis.

Papandreou was speaking just hours before EU finance ministers gathered in Luxembourg to discuss a second bailout package for Greece.

Outside parliament protests continued for the 29th day against the government's proposed austerity measures.
