Greek FinMin Varoufakis: 'Greece Wants Reforms, is Discussing Process'

varoufakis The issue in the negotiations with Greece’s creditors is not whether to apply the reforms or not, Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis said from Venice on Saturday, but what process will be followed.
Speaking on the sidelines of a congress in Italy, Varoufakis referred to a relevant correspondence he had with Eurogroup President Jeroen Dijsselbloem, saying, “Eurogroup chairman Dijsselbloem has replied to my letter. The issue is not the reforms, because Greece wants them, and wants them more. The task, therefore, is to agree on the process by which the reforms will be made more specific, implemented and evaluated so that they can be reviewed by the Eurogroup.”
He added that “the elaboration and assessment of the Greek government’s reform program will be discussed by technical teams that will convene shortly in Brussels.”
Varoufakis is in Italy to attend an Aspen Institute think tank congress on “Assessing Risk: Business in Global Disorder.”
