EC awaits final results to respond; Guardian says Greek delegation heading for Brussels

Sources say Euro Working Group to convene on Mon. -- Situation with ATMs in Greece judged as critical

Newsroom July 5 08:51

A European Commission response is pending, with EU representatives telling protothema.gr that they’re waiting for final results and will not comment until that time.

Earlier, EC President Jean-Claude Juncker had underlined that “if Greeks vote ‘no’, then the Greek position will dramatically deteriorate.”
In a related development, the Guardian’s correspondent from Athens reported that a Greek government delegation is immediately heading to Brussels for talks, with the emphasis — by the Greek side — on a solution as soon as possible.

According to long-time Guardian correspondent in Greece Helena Smith, another government source said the situation outside ATMs is critical, thus necessitating a quick solution.
