The G20 leaders are set to continue their talks on Friday as they seek to find a sustainable solution to the eurozone debt crisis.

20国集团领导人将与周五继续为欧盟债务危机寻找一个可持续解决方案。

They are expected to discuss ways to increase the firepower of the International Monetary1 Fund (IMF).

The hope is that increased resources will help the IMF to support struggling eurozone economies, such as Greece.

There have also been calls for a "financial firewall" to protect vulnerable economies such as Italy.

The US President, Barack Obama, said on Thursday that resolving the eurozone debt crisis was "the most important aspect of our task over the next two days".

Greek threat

The second day of the G20 meeting will also see the Greek prime minister George Papandreou face a confidence vote in parliament.

The opposition2 as well as several government MPs have called for Mr Papandreou to quit after his decision on Monday to hold a national vote sparked a turmoil3(混乱,骚动) on financial markets and upset his German and French counterparts.

Some members from his own party, including the finance minister said that they were against the referendum.

On Thursday, the prime minister said he would scrap4 the move if the conservative opposition party voted to pass the bailout package in parliament.

However, there are fears that he may lose the confidence vote and Greece may have to hold fresh elections, a move which may further delay the implementation5 of a Greek bailout package.

Eurozone leaders have already withheld6 8bn euros ($11bn; £7bn) of fresh rescue loans to Greece and there are fears that further delays may see the government run out of cash and default on its payments.
