Greek debt plans 'to be submitted'
9 July 2015 Europe
Greek PM Alexis Tsipras has returned to Athens for
meetings with officials and members of his government
Greece will submit new proposals to its international
lenders "shortly", its defence minister has said, after the
country's cabinet met on Thursday.
Greece is due to present the proposals by 22:00 GMT on
Thursday to secure a third bailout and prevent a possible
exit from the eurozone.
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras has been seeking agreement
from his ministers.
The new proposals will be studied by eurozone finance
ministers on Saturday and a full EU summit on Sunday.
Defence Minister and junior coalition party leader Panos
Kammenos gave no further details of the agreed plans as he
left the PM's official residence, where ministers had been
meeting.
Mr Tsipras met his cabinet to get their support for the
package, likely to include tax rises and pension reforms,
before submitting it to Greece's creditors.
