GREEK DEBT CRISIS

Greece reached an agreement for a third bailout after months of acrimonious talks with its international creditors.

Trading was halted in Greek stocks for five weeks as part of capital controls implemented by Athens to prevent the flight of capital from the ailing country.

Stock markets in Greece are expected to reopen for business Monday after a month, while Greece seeks more bailout funds.

In exchange for funding, Greece has accepted significant reforms to pensions, taxes, its collective bargaining system and public spending.

Struggling to unify his splintering Syriza party, Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said he would not be bullied any further on austerity measures and called for a party-wide vote.

The International Monetary Fund has decided against participating in a third Greek bailout effort.

The former Greek finance minister is facing criticism at home over his leaked phone conversations.

The so-called troika is vastly unpopular with Greeks, who have angrily protested the creditors’ presence in the past.

A German council suggested the euro area's crisis toolkit should be complemented by a mechanism for orderly sovereign insolvencies.

The plan reportedly included stealing from the national bank and from taxpayers to finance a national return to the drachma.

Greece's ruling Syriza party has struggled to contain an internal revolt after it accepted most of the reforms it originally campaigned against.

After a one-month shutdown, the Greek stock exchange might reopen on Tuesday, official sources said on Sunday.

Members of Greece's Syriza party wanted to raid central bank reserves and hack taxpayer accounts to prepare a return to the drachma, reports show.

The longer it takes, the more critical the banks' condition becomes as a 420 euro ($460) weekly limit on cash withdrawals chokes the economy and borrowers' ability to repay loans.

The Troika are planning talks on a third bailout in Athens — but what about those people left behind?

Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said that he did not support many of the reforms, but said passing them was the only way for the country to stay in the eurozone.

In Greece, refugees are arriving by the thousands — from nations so rife with violence and poverty that Greece seems like a place of relative tranquillity.  

As Greece continues talks with its creditors for fresh bailout funds, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras is dealing with a rift within his party.

The reopening of the banks, which had been shuttered for more than three weeks, is seen by some Greeks as a symbol of normalcy in an uncertain time.

French President François Hollande said an elected parliament for the countries that use the euro might cure what ails Europe.

Only a tiny fraction of the Germans polled offer unqualified support for the deal with Greece, and many say they would have preferred a so-called Grexit.
