Greek sources on Monday, ahead of an extraordinary Eurogroup meeting in Brussels, claimed that a 5.4-billion-euro tax and pension reform package has already received the “green light” by creditors, while also saying that European institutions back Athens' proposal for contingency measures and not the IMF’s stricter demand.
The sources also referred to a “positive atmosphere” at Monday EWG meeting ahead of the Eurogroup session, and said remaining measures in the first package will be submitted for vote in Parliament in the next few days.
