The European parliament in Brussels will discuss the Greek programme on Thursday at 10:30.

Eurogroup president Jeroen Dijsselbloem will participate in the debate on the second programme review.

Dijsselbloem had caused an outroar with his statements about the southern countries spending their money on drinks and women shortly before a previous meeting in the European Parliament that was later cancelled by Dijsselbloem.

The Vice-President of the European Parliament Dimitris Papadimoulis will represent the European Left in the debate.
