Greece must start to implement tough reforms as early as next week in
exchange for a bailout to keep it in the euro, according to proposals
drawn up by finance ministers for a eurozone summit yesterday.
The resumed talks early yesterday amid sharp differences over how much to demand of Athens, after nine hours' wrangling on Saturday failed to produce an agreement.
"We have finalised our discussions. We have come a long way but a couple of big issues are still open," said Jeroen Dijsselbloem, head of the 19-nation eurozone finance ministers' group.
"We are going to give those to the leaders, so it is up to them," Dijsselbloem said, without giving further details.
