Greece's pro-bailout New Democracy party might have narrowly won the election battle, but the nation's war on debt is far from over.<br/> <br />On Monday, officials delivered elections results to the president.<br/> <br />After, parliamentary president Byron Polydoras said parties must immediately form a government to secure a 130-billion euro international bailout package.<br/> <br />(SOUNDBITE) (Greek) GREEK PARLIAMENTARY PRESIDENT BYRON POLYDORAS, SAYING:<br/> <br />"I expressed my wish that we have a government as soon as possible. We have no time to waste. Also, I would like to point out that we need a strong government not just in order to balance the powers in parliament in relation to the parliamentary majority and the opposition but primarily for foreign partnerships."<br/> <br />The sentiments were echoed by the interim prime minister.<br/> <br />(SOUNDBITE) (English) INTERIM GREEK PRIME MINISTER PANAGIOTIS PIKRAMMENOS, SAYING:<br/> <br />"I want to point out the need - a new government needs to be sworn in as soon as possible. The problems of the country are great and there are many who cannot wait for very long."<br/> <br />New Democracy took first place in the polls with just over 29 percent, narrowly beating second place leftist party SYRIZA.<br/> <br />Some residents in Athens were pleased with the result, since Greece is likely to stay in the euro zone trading bloc.<br/> <br />But that plan could go awry if the conservatives are unable to find common ground with socialists and other pro-bailout parties.<br/> <br />Jessica Gray, Reuters
