Soros in Maximou, no talk of debt restructuring

Famous investor George Soros passed through the gates of Maximou Mansion this afternoon to attend a meeting with Prime Minister George Papandreou, during which the Minister of Finance was also present.

As expected, the discussion revolved around international economic developments, as well as the state of Greece under the shade of… the Troika. Reportedly, Mr. Soros acknowledged the great efforts that our country is making under the Stability Program.

During the same meeting, a debt restructuring issue was not discussed, although it is known that recently - according to statements made in early March - the investor felt that sooner or later the markets would push governments in the Eurozone towards the decision to proceed with the debt restructuring of weaker Member States, with Ireland as the primary and initial target.
