Govt spox confident negotiations with creditors will be successful this week

The Greek government spokesman on Wednesday again appeared confident that whatever unresolved issues in negotiations between Athens and its institutional creditors will be overcome during talks this week.

In comments to an Athens-area radio station, spokesman Dimitris Tzanakopoulos merely said negotiations are continuing, without offering details.

However, he did mention the goal of Greece rejoining the ECB’s quantitative easing (QE) stimulus program, as an extra incentive for presenting a total agreement to Eurozone finance ministers at a May 22 Eurogroup meeting.
