Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou has delivered an impassioned plea to German business leaders to help his country out of its current debt crisis.
Mr Papandreou said German funding would not be an investment in past failures, but in future successes.
He also hailed Greece's "superhuman" efforts to cut its debt levels.
The prime minister is in Germany for talks with German Chancellor Angela Merkel to discuss his country's progress in cutting its budget deficit.
Mr Papandreou said the current debt crisis provided a "unique opportunity to launch important reforms that Greece badly needs to become competitive again".
Drawing parallels with the reunification of Germany, he talked of the "rebirth of a nation".
"Your contribution can be crucial," he told the assembled businessmen and women.
Mr Papandreou said that in 2010 Greece had overseen the "largest fiscal consolidation in a single year [of any eurozone member]" in reducing its budget deficit by five percentage points.download game mediafire | free download game | Download game for free
