Representatives of Greece’s international creditors are leaving Athens, saying they’ve made headway in discussions that could lead to the disbursal of more aid funds.
Euro-area, International Monetary Fund, and Greek officials “have made important progress on a policy package that should pave the way for discussions on the conclusion of the first review of the Greek program and debt sustainability,” European Commission spokeswoman Mina Andreeva told reporters in Brussels. The commission will continue to work on “the final elements of an overall policy package,” she said.
