European Union leaders will decide on additional aid for Greece by the end of June and have ruled out a "total restructuring" of the nation's debt, said Jean-Claude Juncker, head of the group of euro-area finance ministers.
Inspectors from the EU, the International Monetary Fund and the European Central Bank are set to wrap up a review of Greece's progress in meeting the terms of last year's 110 billion-euro ($158 billion) bailout in the next few days. The EU will then formulate its plan for further aid to Greece, which remains shut out of financial markets a year after the rescue.
"We are waiting for their final judgment," Juncker, who is also Luxembourg's prime minister, said yesterday in Paris after meeting with French President Nicolas Sarkozy. "Their position will partly determine our position, so it's too early. We will try to solve the Greek problem by the end of June."
