BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Euro zone leaders at an emergency summit in Brussels were to reconvene in full session early on Monday to discuss a compromise proposal on a third bailout for Greece, a spokesman for summit chairman Donald Tusk said.

"Tusk expects to reconvene euro summit in 10 minutes on Greece with compromise proposal," he tweeted just after 4 a.m. (0200 GMT). The meeting was suspended for over four hours while Tusk, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande held talks with Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras.
