After Greece failed to propose a fresh debt deal on Tuesday, the eurozone gave it until Thursday to present new proposals to secure a deal with creditors, media reported on Wednesday.
On Sunday, a meeting of all 28 members of the European Union will be held — a day after the new Greek proposals are expected to be discussed by the eurozone finance ministers. The Greek crisis came up for debate in the European Parliament in Strasbourg on Wednesday. European Council President Donald Tusk told members of the European Parliament that there were only “four days left” to reach a final agreement, BBC reported.
Amid boos and cheers, Greek PM Alexis Tsipras addressed the European parliament, saying the Greek people “stood up and were counted — we have to listen to what they said”.
