Greek PM says country will be united after referendum

Greece's Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said Thursday his country would remain united after the upcoming referendum, rejecting concerns the vote on bailout measures is splitting the country in two.

"The day after the referendum, we will be united" to overcome "the temporary difficulty" Greece faces, he said three days before a plebiscite which European leaders insist is effectively a vote on whether to stay in the eurozone.
