Greek officials arrive at euro summit without fresh proposals
Greek officials have reportedly arrived at Tuesday's emergency summit in Brussels without a new bailout proposal.
According to the Financial Times, which cited a number of senior Eurozone officials, the lack of a fresh cash-for-reforms plan from Athens has taken the bloc's finance ministers by surprise.
Many had expected Greek officials to come to the meeting with a new proposal following Sunday's referendum which saw the Hellenic Republic vote a resounding 'no' to the terms of a previous bailout proposal by creditors.
Ahead of the summit, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Francois Hollande and Eurogroup chair Jeroen Dijsselbloem had all called on Greece to present new, "serious" and "credible" economic package in exchange for aid.
Following the weekend's public vote, Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said by voting 'no', the Greek people had given him "a mandate to strengthen our negotiating position to seek a viable solution".
