Gov’t will try to achieve a deal with the troika by Dec. 9, FinMin says

Stournaras’ meeting with the premier followed two rounds of talks with the troika earlier in the day. Reaching an agreement “is rather difficult, but I believe we can succeed,” he said, adding that the financing gap was enlarged owing to changes in the real estate tax.
“We are trying to cover it (the gap),” Stournaras noted, clarifying that no cuts will be made to salaries and pensions. He said, however, that the implementation of the single payroll system in the public sector will go ahead.
The Finance minister also said that the country is not facing a liquidity problem, “but for reasons of substance and policy, a solution has to be found.”
