The EuroWorking Group (EWG), the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) and the Eurogroup will meet on Monday to approve the disbursement of the 2.8-billion-euro loan sub-tranche to Greece.

The Greek government is pleased with Eurostat’s Spring Report that foresees that the Greek economy will return to growth in the second semester of this year.

The Eurogroup meeting taking place in Riga, Latvia, concluded on Friday.

Eurogroup chief Jeroen Dijsselbloem said that there are positive signs, but still wide differences to bridge on substance, adding that time is running out and too much time has been lost. Dijsselbloem also stated that the responsibility for closing the gap falls primarily on Greece.
