Greek Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos on Wednesday appeared confident that Greek bonds will once again be included in the ECB’s “quantitative easing” asset-purchase program, in comments to Bloomberg.
“QE could follow as soon as July’s maturing debt is paid,” Tsakalotos was quoted as saying. Bloomberg pointed to a July 20 payment of debt held by the ECB. “I feel confident Greek debt will be eligible” by September, he added.
