A. Breidthardt: There is convergence that talks need to be more productive
There is convergence on the fact that talks between Greece and the representatives of the institutions need to be made more productive and efficient, Annika Breidthardt, spokeswoman of the EU Commissioner for Economic and Financial Affairs Pierre Moscovici, said on Tuesday (28/04).
Asked to comment on changes in the negotiating group, she said that since they have the mandate to negotiate, they are satisfied.
She declined to comment on whether the procedure of the negotiations and the current relation between the Brussels Group and the Athens Group will change. She only stated that discussions are underway in order to make the negotiations more productive and efficient.
After the Eurogroup in Riga, contacts have been intensified so that greater progress is achieved. Talks at all levels continue, she said, while as regards the Brussels Group, negotiations will continue either through a teleconference or a meeting.
She stated, however, that she is not in a position to confirm a Brussels Group meeting on Wednesday, in Brussels.
According to European Commission sources, a Euro Working Group meeting is scheduled for Wednesday.
