The ECB's mission chief in Greece, Francesco Drudi, with remarks to Greek newspaper Proto Thema.
Greece should not delay agreed bailout reforms
- If so that could "complicate" an upcoming bailout review by its foreign creditors
- "If any major backtracking or delays occur in the implementation of the key deliverables due so far, this could complicate the completion of the review"
- "Unfortunately, a number of parliamentary bills adopted after the conclusion of the second review may not be in line with program commitments and will have to be assessed by our teams"
--
Greece's third bailout review is expected to begin in October
- Bad loans, the 2018 budget, the energy market & privatizations will be among the main issues
