MILAN – From the absence of a clear plan, the plethora of reform proposals: on the negotiating table between Athens and Brussels Group (the former troika of EU, ECB and IMF) are over two opposing programs to overcome the impasse in which it’s over Greece. On the one hand, the Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras has forwarded the proposals of the government of Syriza to unlock aid; a handbook still considered too broad by international creditors. On the other hand, it expects the counter-ultimatum which could be the last chance for Athens to unlock the 7.2 billion euro of aid. Creditors would be likely to accept the idea that the budget surplus this year is below 1%, launching a first sign of possible compromise as Athens requested 0.8%. Exchanges have lived on the numerous meetings of the day, both technically and politically, although from Brussels have made clear that “the solution is not provided in the evening.” The agreement is supported by the Minister Pier Carlo Padoan and President Francois Hollande, however, that an agreement for the ECB governor, Mario Draghi, “to be strong”.
