[01] Gov't again rejects talk of debt restructuring
(ANA-MPA) -- The government on Thursday again flatly dismissed
speculation over a restructuring of the country's debt. Government
spokesman Giorgos Petalotis, speaking to reporters, said the government
was only discussing an extension of a repayment period for the
110-billion-euro bailout by the EU-ECB-IMF "troika".
"For the past 15 months, every day, there are comments on the Greek
economy, comments initially referring to a default and we are proving
that not only we have not default but we are creating the prospects to
exiting the crisis," he said, adding that "based on this, we reject a
restructuring of the debt. Our only discussion is extending the
repayment period for the 110-bln-euro loan".
