It was initially planned that the technical teams from the European Commission (EC), the European Central Bank (ECB), the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) and the International Monetary Fund ( IMF) on Friday began talks in Athens with the aim of closing a third rescue until 20 August.
The delay was due, according to the ministry he stressed in a statement to “technical reasons” and not “political” and “diplomatic”.
The ministry stressed that the debate on “where and how” will be held negotiations “are going on the right track.”
With this, the ministry referred to press reports according to which the Government would be putting problems that representatives of this new quartet had access to ministries.
However, several representatives of the Government said this weekend that officials may enter ministries where considered necessary.
During the government of conservative Andonis Samaras was common to see the so-called troika officials entering and leaving the ministries regularly.
Tsipras wanted to end this habit in the population caused the feeling that the country was ruled by foreign institutions, so that the negotiations carried out before the expiry of the second bailout They were held in a hotel in Athens, Brussels or Paris, a situation that greatly complicated the work.
Meanwhile, the IMF confirmed on Friday have been invited to join the trio of institutions negotiate a third bailout for Greece totaling 86,000 million euros for three years.
The IMF, which Greece wanted to see out of these negotiations often pursue particularly draconian measures, he had demanded that it send an invitation separately.
According to local media, between the demands that would be asking the IMF in exchange for their participation in the program of assistance it would appear that the reforms he was required to Greece are applied before disbursement money, something that apparently is reluctant Athens.
