Dijsselbloem: “Referendum result very regrettable for future of Greece”

Eurogroup's president Dutch finance minister Jeroen Dijsselbloem has issued a terse statement following Greece's 'No' vote rejecting lenders' proposals in a historic referendum.

Dijsselbloem said:

I take note of the outcome of the Greek referendum. This result is very regrettable for the future of Greece. For recovery of the Greek economy, difficult measures and reforms are inevitable. We will now wait for the initiatives of the Greek authorities. The Eurogroup will discuss the state of play on Tuesday 7 July.
