This article is for subscribers only.
European stock-index futures fell after talks over Greece’s debt ended for the day with the nation saying it wouldn’t accept euro-area proposals for it to stick to the terms of its bailout.
Contracts on the Euro Stoxx 50 Index lost 1.2 percent to 3,410 at 6:05 p.m. in London. A Greek government official said a euro-area proposal for the country to observe its existing bailout commitments is “absurd” and “unacceptable.” Euro-area finance ministers met in Brussels and reviewed a draft text regarding the Greek conditions.
