Greece debt crisis: Eurozone predicts tough talks
Saturday, 11 July 2015
Eurozone finance chiefs have warned of tough negotiations ahead as they meet to decide whether Greece's new reform proposals merit a third debt bailout. Germany's Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said the talks would be "extremely difficult".
Eurogroup chief Jeroen Dijsselbloem spoke of a "major issue of trust" over Greece's resolve to implement reform.But Greece's Economy Minister Giorgos Stathakis told the BBC his government was "committed to moving forward".
Early on Saturday, Greek MPs voted overwhelmingly in favour of the measures proposed by PM Alexis Tsipras - despite the fact that many of the ideas had been rejected by the Greek people in last Sunday's referendum, according to a news agency.
