Greece Will Not Opt Out of Debt Repayment

A Greek government spokesman denied a German newspaper report on Tuesday that it was considering opting out of a loan repayment in July if lenders could not agree on debt relief.

“It is not true,” government spokesman Dimitris Tzanakopoulos told Reuters. “There will be a solution on June 15.”

Greece is hoping a June 15 meeting of euro zone finance ministers will offer clarity and a solution to its long-standing call for debt relief after three international bailouts.
