Germany's Schaeuble says lenders reach 'common position' on Greece

BRUSSELS: Greece's EU-IMF lenders have reached a "common position" on Greece that should allow them to return to Athens to resolve a deadlock over its bailout, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said Monday.

"I am working on the principle that the (creditor) institutions now have a common position and that we have come far enough for the technical mission to go back to Athens," Schaeuble said as he met eurozone colleagues in Brussels.
