[01] Brussels Group talks continuing at intense pace, sources report
ANA-MPA -- Negotiations between Greek authorities and representatives
of the institutions in the Brussels Group are continuing at an intense
pace, sources said here on Saturday.
There was a meeting between technical teams on a wide range of issues on
Saturday morning, including the operation of Greece's justice system,
markets and others, while Brussels Group officials will meet in the
afternoon. Greek diplomatic sources said they are satisfied with the
progress in the talks, noting that they are tending toward achieving
agreement in areas of key importance, such as VAT, a drastic restriction
of early pensions, gradual merger of social insurance funds and others.
The talks will continue on Sunday, while EU sources said that they will
likely continue into next week as well.
