The Netherlands warns Greece ahead of EU meeting
The Netherlands will end its support for Greece if Athens does not meet international demands for economic reform and spending cuts, finance minister Jan Kees de Jager said on Friday.
‘As long as our conditions are not met, our answer will not be yes,’ De Jager said after the Friday cabinet meeting.
At the same time, De Jager admitted that if Greece went bankrupt, it would also cost the Netherlands a lot of money, the Telegraaf said.
European finance ministers are due to discuss the Greek crisis on Tuesday.
