Meanwhile, the European Commission said on Monday it may urge Greece to take further steps to reduce its gaping budget deficit, and that it was awaiting an evaluation of Athens' efforts to combat the problem.
A spokesman for the commission said: "There should be a first report available in mid-March and that should allow us to make a more in-depth evaluation of the measures which have been proposed by the Greek authorities, including additional measures, as well as the budgetary impact of those measures."
