Report: Greece eyed EU summit if deal fell through; Tusk later declined

European Council President Donald Tusk insinuated as much on Friday in a Tweet

Nevertheless, Tusk later announced that he would not convene such a summit, a moot point in the wake of a widely reported deal on Friday evening between Athens and its eurozone creditors.
