The minister of finance of the euro countries are again May 9 in Brussels. Discussed the Greek debt and a series of new measures which should make the Greeks to achieve certain economic objectives in 2018. But according to Gabriel is time to break the vicious circle of the past few years.,, Everyone knows that this debt relief will have to come at some point.
