European
governments agreed on a third aid deal for Greece, signaling a determination to
keep the country in the euro and setting aside doubts about its ability to
repay its debts.
The political accord will allow member
states to sign off on the agreement next week and will buttress Greek Prime Minister
Alexis Tsipras, who came to office in January vowing to roll back budget cuts. He
backed down when threatened with ouster from the euro and faces the challenge
of forming a more stable government, possibly after new elections.
“Euro membership isn’t unconditional, it
requires major efforts from Greece,” German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble
told reporters in Brussels late Friday. “Despite all the difficulties, all of
us in the Eurogroup agreed that we wanted to seize this opportunity.”
