Readout from a Treasury Spokesperson on Secretary Lew's Call Today with Greek
Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis
2/18/2015

Today, Secretary Jacob J. Lew spoke by phone with Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis to discuss the latest deliberations between Greece and its international
partners. Secretary Lew noted that failure to reach an agreement would lead to immediate hardship in Greece, that the uncertainty is not good for Europe, and that
time is of the essence. He urged Greece to find a constructive path forward in partnership with Europe and the IMF to build on the foundation that exists to advance
growth and reform. Secretary Lew added that the United States will remain engaged with all parties to encourage concrete progress in the days ahead.
