I do not believe the diplomatic démarcheby the Greek Government was successful. People are waiting on Greece to make a proposal to determine whether there can be a development of consensus for negotiating purposes. Different statements have been made in different capitals by the Greek Prime Minister and Finance Minister. The Prime Minister returned home and addressed Parliament on Sunday in a full speech, but everything that was stated on Sunday did not match the detail of the dialogue in European capitals. I do not want to be definitive about anything because I am not sure what the Greek position is, but I hope it will be clarified tomorrow.
