Troika back in Athens on July 24, EC official says

Envoys representing Greece’s international creditors — the European Commission, European Central Bank and International Monetary Fund, known as the troika — are due back in Greece on July 24, Simon O’Connor, the spokesman for European Economy and Monetary Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn, said from Brussels on Thursday, according to Skai.

O’Connor added that a separate troika delegation was due to visit Cyprus, which also has applied for rescue funding, early next week.

Troika officials are scheduled to meet with Finance Minister Yannis Stournaras on July 26 to discuss Greece’s progress in implementing its economic program and its efforts to come up with 11.5 billion euros in savings for 2013 and 2014.
