[01] Progress has been made in the negotiations, EU Commission's
Andreeva says
European Commission deputy spokeswoman Mina Andreeva on Thursday
expressed her satisfaction over the progress made in the negotiations
between Greece and the institutions.
Asked on a German newspaper report that the German government has doubts
over the possibility of a deal within the next two weeks, she said that
"based on the Treaty of the ESM and the relevant mandate from member
states, the evaluation of the progress is made by the European Commission
and the ECB, together with the IMF and ESM in this case." She added that
the teams in Athens have reported that "good progress" has been made.
Andreeva noted that a teleconference of the Finance ministry chiefs will
take place on Friday to take stock of the course of the negotiations.
