Gov’t-troika close to deal on Hellenic Defence Systems

Reporting on the results of a three-hour negotiating session between Finance Minister Yannis Stournaras and the heads of the EU-IMF troika mission in Athens on Sunday evening, the source said that a deal on Monday would be “no surprise”.
Defence ministry officials that also participated in the meeting,

alongside Alternate Defence Minister Fofi Gennimata, seemed equally confident that the two sides were close to a deal, saying that a final deal on Monday was possible.
Sunday’s meeting focused on technical aspects of a restructuring plan for EAS, which calls for the separation of the company into military and civilian parts and the retention of the former, though with fewer staff and an export-oriented character for a transitional period.
The two sides will put the final touches to the agreement on Monday, based on additional figures to be supplied by the defence ministry to the troika concerning the forecasts for the company’s finances over the next 12 months. The deal will then be ratified, either in a further meeting with finance ministry officials or through an exchange of e-mails.
