Juncker calls for Cyprus bailout talks to speed up
Luxembourg’s Jean-Claude Juncker, head of the group of euro-area
finance ministers, said Friday that Cyprus and the so-called troika --
consisting of the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the
International Monetary Fund -- must speed up the process of negotiating
a package of external aid for the island country.
“There is no
time to lose,” Juncker said in Nicosia, after meeting with Cypriot
President Dimitris Christofias. Juncker said he is confident a solution
to Cyprus’s “very serious” problems will be found “in the next few
weeks.” [Bloomberg] |
