GREECE and its international lenders must conclude a first assessment of the country's bailout reforms as quickly as possible, the government spokeswoman said on Tuesday.

Talks between the mission chiefs from the European Union, International Monetary Fund, European Central Bank and the eurozone's bailout fund on reviewing Greece's progress and the government over a tough pension reform plan and fiscal targets took a break on Friday after four days of meetings.
