Greece's Varoufakis says 'no more loans'

Athens - Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis said his government was not asking for a way out of repaying the country's debt, but wanted a few months of financial stability.

In an opinion piece for the New York Times, Varoufakis also said Greece should not take any more loans until it had a credible plan for achieving economic growth.

"Our government is not asking our partners for a way out of repaying our debts," he said in the article, published before he meets fellow euro zone finance ministers in Brussels on Monday to discuss his government's demands for debt relief and an end to austerity policies.
