Troika and the technical group will be leaving Greece today and tomorrow. The group plans to come to Greece in early April.
Due to the disagreement between Troika and Greek government the 8.8 billion euro to be paid to Greece is not certain according to the news in Greek media.
Disagreements between Troika and Greece focus on reducing the number of civil servants, extending the payment period of tax debts and premium payments of social security institutions and the method of levying taxes on immovable assets.
