GREEK Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras reaffirmed his government's rejection of the country's international bailout programme before Wednesday's emergency meeting of the euro area's finance ministers to discuss the country's financing needs.
"We need an honest negotiation with our partners that does not condemn the Greek economy and society to unending recession," Mr Tsipras, 40, said in an address to Parliament on Sunday, marking the start of a three-day debate on his government's policy platform.
