  • Story Text: The International Monetary Fund's decision to withdraw its team from Brussels does not mean the Washington-based lender has given up on reaching a deal with Greece, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said on Friday (June 12).
    "I don't think one can interpret the International Monetary Fund's action as meaning that the International Monetary Fund will leave the negotiations," Juncker told a news conference after the EU-Mexico summit.
    "I spoke at length the Greek prime minister last night and I will probably do so in the days to come ... I think a solution is necessary," he added.
