The Eurogroup will convene on Monday amid moderate expectations on the Greek issue. The IMF does not seem to retreat from its demand for additional measures while the Greek government insists on no more austerity.

The EuroGroup released a statement on Greece and its talks during Thursday’s meeting. The full statement is as follows:

Greece has achieved remarkable results and "we are not very far from achieving the goal," European Commissioner for Economic and Financial Affairs Pierre Moscovici commented on Thursday, in a press conference after Eurozone finance ministers met in Brussels. He expressed confidence that a swift resumption of talks on completing the second review was possible if everyone puts in "their best effort".
