EU's Juncker wants greater Greek effort in debt talks


    VIENNA (Reuters) - European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker urged Greece on Tuesday to step up efforts to strike a deal with its international creditors, warning that talks had not reached a stage at which they could come to a quick positive end.

    "We are absolutely not satisfied with the course of talks so far. There is urgent need for greater efforts on the Greek side to be able to conclude this matter in our mutual interests," he told reporters during a visit to Vienna.

    "The intensity of talks has increased in the past four or five days but is not yet at the maturity needed to be able to reach a quick conclusion."
