"We set the process back on track," Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said after the end of the seven-part meeting on the Greek issue that was held on the sidelines of the EU Summit in Brussels.
The premier noted that all sides confirmed their will to cooperate in order the difficulties to be confronted. Tsipras added that, mainly, all sides certified the common reading of February 20 Eurogroup's decision. He noted that it is clear that Greece is not obliged to implement austerity measures namely the fifth evaluation and "Hardouvelis' e-mail".
Tsipras stated that the government will table its own proposals for structural reforms, which will implement. As the premier said, all sides expressed their eagerness to work in order the financing of the Greek economy to be restored as soon as possible.
The Greek prime minister said that European Commission president Jean Claude Juncker certified his intention to immediately promote European projects that will disburse substantial amounts against the humanitarian crisis in Greece. He added, however, that the amount of the money will be announced by Juncker after the end of the Summit on Friday. "We set the process back on track because under some persons' responsibility, it had derailed,"
