[01] Berlin willing to offer 'extensive concessions' to Athens, Der
Spiegel says
Berlin (ANA-MPA / F. Karaviti) - Berlin seems to be willing to offer
"extensive concessions" to Athens in the near future, in a bid to prevent
the revival of the crisis and support pro-euro forces, according to a
Der Spiegel report to be published on Monday.
According to Deutsche Welle (DW), citing the Der Spiegel report, the
German Finance ministry's paper includes "three possibilities, which
could be combined."
"A limited additional programme of 10-20 billion euros from ESM (European
Support Mechanism), without (the participation of) IMF (International
Monetary Fund), the issue of Greek bonds, with higher yields compared
to those of other European countries and despite the German Finance
ministry's denials, a possible new haircut of the Greek debt, that would
mainly hit the euro area member states," DW said.
