More and more meetings for Greek PM Papademos

Date: Monday 06 Feb 2012

Despite rumours of an imminent agreement on Greek austerity measures, it appears that negotiations are not progressing. The Daily Telegraph reports that Greek prime minister Lucas Papademos may hold conversations with the "troika" (European Central Bank, International Monetary Fund and the European Union) later on Monday in order to discuss the status of negotiations.

On Tuesday he will meet with Greek political leaders and will likely transmit any message that the International Monetary Fund, European Central Bank and the European Union want to express. The British daily supposes that the "troika" will call for more austerity.

By the look of things, it is best not to expect a Eurogroup meeting until Wednesday at the earliest.
