[01] Eurostat's economic figures constitute a strong weapon in the
negotiations, gov't officials say
Government officials expressed their content over Eurostat's second
bunch of economic figures on the Greek economy in a meeting chaired by
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Tuesday.
Eurostat's data confirmed the estimates of the Greek government for
return to recovery in the second half of 2016 and higher than expected
growth rates.
The same officials said that Greece has now a strong weapon in the
negotiations for the conclusion of the program review. Meanwhile,
they said that the EU institutions have well understood that contingent
measures cannot be legislated and they have set the basis for discussion
on the automatic mechanism proposed by the Greek side.
