Euro zone may need extra summit to clinch Greek deal

A Greek and a European flag flutter outside the Greek embassy in Brussels BRUSSELS/ATHENS (Reuters) - Euro zone finance ministers will try again on Friday to break a deadlock over Greece's urgent need for further financing but it may take an emergency summit of the currency bloc in the coming week to clinch any deal. "The Greek government has done all it should at every level in an effort to find a mutually beneficial solution," government spokesman Gabriel Sakellaridis told Mega TV. Germany rejected a Greek letter on Thursday requesting an extension of its loan agreement from the euro zone as a "Trojan Horse", deceptively designed to enable Athens to dodge past commitments to austerity measures and economic reforms. Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, elected last month on a platform of scrapping the bailout, says austerity has strangled his country's economy and caused a humanitarian crisis.
