European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde welcomed the high level of implementation of the Greek government's reforms program, during a meeting with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in Brussels on Tuesday, government sources said.

After taking over her new duties as head of the European Central Bank Lagarde's, the prime minister will meet with her on the occasion of a dinner in honor of Benoit Coeure, who is leaving the ECB's board.

Christine Lagarde on Thursday said she is impressed by Greece's progress in both its fiscal position and its growth rates, in statements after a European Central Bank meeting which she chaired for the first time as its new president.
