German Finance Minister Olaf Scholz merely reiterated this week that decisions over Greek debt relief will be taken at the end of June, in statements to the Athens daily "Ta Nea".

Arriving at the Eurogroup meeting in Brussels, its president Mario Centeno said the news of a deal at a staff level for the Greek matter was “excellent news”. He added that the reforms would have to be implemented by next week.

The Eurogroup might have approved the tranche for Greece on Monday, but celebrations by the Greek government were quickly mitigated ahead of talks over the pending prior actions, the 4th review, the debt relief, and the new supervision, according to sources from Brussels. Reports suggest the IMF is preparing to make tough demands on Greece.
