European Council urged Greece to finalise key laws on fiscal strategy and privatisation

24 June 2011

The euro area Heads of State agree that required additional funding for Greece will be financed through both official and private sources.

They endorse the approach decided by the Eurogroup on 20 June as regards the pursuit of voluntary private sector involvement, in the form of informal and voluntary roll-overs of existing Greek debt at maturity for a substantial reduction of the required year-by-year funding within the programme, while avoiding a selective default.
