ATHENS (Reuters) - Greece's government on Monday played down the prospect of submitting a new counter-proposal as sought by lenders in order to resume negotiations after a breakdown in talks over the weekend.

"We have largely exhausted our limits," Government spokesman Gabriel Sakellardis told a news conference when asked if Athens would submit new proposals to break the impasse with creditors. He added that he didn't see why the current proposal made by Greece was not good enough.
