Α face-to-face meeting at a Brussels Group level is due today, following yesterday΄s teleconference, in light of the ECB’s Governing Council meeting and the EU Summit tomorrow at Riga.
Greek representatives will try to reach some sort of agreement at a technical level today so that the PM Mr. Tsipras will aim at a political solution tomorrow and possibly an Extraordinary Eurogroup on 25 May to unlock delayed disbursements.
Note that yesterday addressing a joint press conference in Berlin, German Chancellor Mrs. Merkel and French President Mr. Hollande said that talks must be accelerated to produce an agreement by the end of May.
