ATHENS, Greece (AFP) — Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras will on Wednesday ask European Council president Donald Tusk to call an EU summit to help facilitate negotiations with the debt-ridden country’s creditors, a government source said.
Tsipras’s decision came after a mooted meeting of the eurozone finance ministers was postponed, with Eurogroup chief Jeroen Dijsselbloem saying “more time” was needed to decide on the next steps for Greece’s massive bailout.
