Greece ‘intends’ to make its 750 million euro payment to the IMF due on May 12th on time, according to statements made by the country’s Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis in Brussels on Thursday.

Scientists, on Prof. Varotsos seismological team, are waiting for a big earthquake, estimated at more than 6R.

Brussels Group is moving towards the conclusion of this phase of negotiations between the Greek side and the institutions, having achieved convergence in many issues, but some issues such as labour and pension issues still remain open.
