EU Commission spokesperson Margaritis Schinas underlined on Tuesday in Brussels that the European Commission expects that there will be a significant outcome in the negotiations between the Greek Government and the institutions by April 24.

Specifically, Schinas noted that the negotiations which are currently underway concern all the issues related to the Greek program and are along the lines of the Eurogroup announcement of February 20.

According to the EC spokesperson, the Commission expects that these negotiations will have a significant outcome by the next meeting of the Eurozone finance ministers, which will take place on April 24 in Riga, Latvia.

Schinas declined to comment on the statements by Poul Thomsen, director of the IMF’s European department, over Greece’s finances, saying that the Commission will not make any comments during a comprehensive negotiation.
