[01] FinMin Stournaras expresses satisfaction over Eurogroup decisions
ANA/MPA---Finance Minister and president of the Ecofin Yannis Stournaras
on Wednesday expressed his satisfaction over Eurogroup's decisions
on Greece.
"Today we will discuss two main issues: first the reform on banks'
restructuring and secondly the Banking Union, that is the Single
Resolution Mechanism and the Intergovernmental Agreement.
As far as Greece is concerned, I am very satisfied. Seven countries
should now turn to their parliaments for the relevant significant
decisions. Eurogroup has already given its approval so that all those
parliamentary procedures can go ahead and the next tranches can be
disbursed.
Generally speaking, I am satisfied. We had very interesting discussions
on the economic situation and the financing of small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs). It was a fruitful ECOFIN and Eurogroup," the minister
said ahead of the second working meeting of the informal Ecofin.
