[01] Second review of strategic importance for Greece, says European
Commission spox Schinas
BRUSSELS (ANA/M. Aroni)---European Commission spokesman Margaritis
Schinas on Tuesday underlined the need for a 'common understanding"
on the issue of the Greek debt in the following weeks.
Called to comment IMF's chief Christine Lagarde's proposal for the
extension of the deliberations on the debt, Schinas said that the
Commission does not comment statements.
He reiterated European Commission's belief that Greece has done what it
should have done and now it is time for its partners to do the same.
"We believe that the second review is very close to its completion and
we call all the sides to do whatever necessary for a successful result"
said Schinas underlining that the second review is of strategic importance
for Greece because not only key-reforms for the modernisation of the
Greek economy are implemented but also it safeguards a credible fiscal
course for the country for the following years.
