EU-28 Summit on Greece Cancelled

European Council President Donald Tusk has cancelled the summit meeting of European Union heads of government scheduled to discuss Greece on Sunday.

Tusk wrote on Twitter that only a "EuroSummit", one of leaders of Eurozone member states, will take place at 16:00 local time - when the European Council was due to begin.

On Sunday all EU leaders were due to meet for talks over Greece's latest reforms proposal which could secure a third bailout package for the debt-ridden country.

I have cancelled #EUCO today. #EuroSummit to start at 16h and last until we conclude talks on #Greece

This comes after a failure of Eurozone leaders to reach an agreement on a bailout deal with Greece - one that could have been formally approved by all EU members.

Sunday's crunch talks - the second EU Council session in just days - ended in a deadlock as the leaders were negotiating over the new reform plans, and reportedly demanded that more be done by Athens if it is to receive additional funding.

Some ministers voiced doubt that the country will be able to put all austerity measures tabled by Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras after a massive "no" vote in a Greek referendum on bailout conditions.

The rest of the Eurozone requires of Greece to be "more specific" on product and labor market reform, according to the BBC.

In Europe itself a "yes" and a "no" camp are emerging on whether to give Greece more than EUR 53.5 B in funding to pay its debt by 2013.
