He said this desire was unshakable and absolutely no one at Monday's meeting of finance ministers had discussed Athens leaving the euro. Mr Juncker said he looked forward to the swift formation of a new Greek government. But he also said the eurozone expects the government to continue to implement unpopular austerity policies made by the previous administration.
"This is not a time to relax the reform effort. On the contrary, continued fiscal and structural reforms are Greece's best guarantee for a more prosperous future in euro area. We therefore encourage Greece to resolutely continue to adjust the structural weakness of its economy."
In Athens talks in forming an emergency coalition government in Greece have ended for the day with no sign of progress. The negotiations will resume on Tuesday. One proposal the leaders of the main parties discussed was the formation of another technocratic government, made up of distinguished nonpolitical figures. If no deal can be reached by Thursday, fresh elections will be called.欧元区财长会主席让-克洛德·容克重申财长会将会继续履行诺言帮助希腊留在欧元区。他说,这种意愿是不可动摇的。而在周一的财长会议上确实没有人提出将希腊踢出欧元区。容克先生表示,他期待能够迅速建立一个新的希腊政府,但他也提出,欧元区指望该政府继续推行由旧政府制定的不受欢迎的紧缩政策。
“现在还不是放松改革的时候。相反的是,希腊只有继续实行财政改革和结构改革,才能保证自己在欧元区有个更繁荣的前景。我们于是鼓励希腊坚定地继续改正经济中的结构弱点。”
在希腊,关于构建紧急联合政府的谈话今日结束,却并无进展。磋商将会在周二重新开始。主要党派领导讨论的一个提议就是建立一个技术专家型政府,政府人员由著名的非政界人士构成。如果周四还不能得到什么成果,人们可能就呼唤重新选举了。
