BERLIN (Reuters) - Greece still has the chance to accept an offer to remain in the euro zone but there won't be any renegotiating and if Athens doesn't take up the offer it won't be the end of the world, Germany's EU Commissioner told German newspaper Handelsblatt.

"The offer to Greece to stay in the euro zone still stands but if that doesn't succeed, it wouldn't be the end of the world," Guenther Oettinger said in an interview published on Monday.
