[01] European Commission chief Juncker: Greece has 'long road ahead'
but is not in danger of bankruptcy
ANA-MPA - Greece still has a long road ahead, European Commission
President Jean-Claude Juncker said in an interview on Saturday, but
ruled out its bankruptcy at this point.
Even if Greece has not detailed its proposals for reforms, "Rheinische
Post" daily quoted the Commission official as saying, "we are on the
right path."
He reiterated that Greece "is and remains a part of the eurozone" but
it must keep its commitments to the Eurogroup. It must also follow a
viable and trustworthy fiscal policy, he said, noting that if campaign
promises are to be kept, they must be fundable as well.
