Greek prime minister won't resign if Greeks vote 'yes' at referendum

Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said Thursday in an interview on Greek television that he will remain in office and sign a deal with the country's creditors if Greeks 'yes' in Sunday's referendum. But he assured Greeks that a 'no' vote would allow him to fly to Brussels and sign a deal the next day. Earlier Thursday, Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis said he would resign his position, but remain in the Greek parliament, if Greeks vote 'yes'. Tsipras's government has been campaigning for a 'no' vote.
