His statements were carried in a German newspaper.

“Athens has to prove that it has fulfilled the agreed conditions, before any further finds can be disbursed” Schaeuble said, adding that “how long Greece needs to fulfill the terms” is up to the Greek government.

He also warned the Greek Finance Minister against trying to change the terms of the current agreement, stating that if Yanis Varoufakis “declares that the Eurogroup’s agreement with Greece is unclear, he will do so against his better judgment.”
