Tsipras-Juncker had a ten-minute phone conversation

Mr. Tsipras has already spoken with the head of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament Mr. Gianni Pittella

A ten-minute conversation between PM Alexis Tsipras and EC president Jean-Claude Juncker took place on Tuesday afternoon after the former’s initiative.

 

The discussion took place in English, confirming rumors that the two men have ongoing and frequent talks in order to come to a middle ground on a Greek debt problem solution.

 

Maximos Mansion sources, however, point to no other facts on the actual content of the discussion and neither side wants to leak any information.

 

The Greek government is optimistic, however, on tomorrow’s Eurogroup meeting.
