The Greek government is confident on reaching an agreement based on the certainty of an emergency Eurogroup meeting on Thursday. Government sources however have clarified that there is no chance of a new bill being tabled to be voted upon this week.

Government sources also noted that the Eurogroup chairman Jeroen Dijsselbloem is balancing between the list and mechanism.
