The Greek leader has asked to talk with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Francois Hollande, European Central Bank President Mario Draghi and EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, a state official said. On Thursday’s Summit, European leaders will discuss the issues of Russia and Ukraine. Tsipras wants a meeting with the key European officials to discuss Greece’s bailout. So far, there has been no response to Greece’s request. “I have now no confirmation of any particular meeting arrangements,” EU Commission spokeswoman Mina Andreeva told the Associated Press.
