ROME (Reuters) - Italian Economy Minister Pier Carlo Padoan said on Friday that negotiations with Greece on a third bailout programme must be balanced and aimed at both keeping spending in check and fostering growth.
"The programme must be balanced, containing measures that put it on a path toward a sustainable budget while also helping growth and creating jobs," Padoan said in a statement. "It will be a delicate negotiation that must keep in mind the lessons learned from past experiences."
