Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos dismissed “rumors” of a Greek default, saying the nation is committed to “full implementation” of the terms of a July agreement for a second aid package.
“This isn’t the first time that this organized wave of rumors over Greece’s default has appeared,” Venizelos said in an e-mailed statement today. “This is a game that’s in bad taste, organized speculation that is directed against the euro region and the euro as a whole.”
