Greece debt crisis: 'No new plan' before summit

Eurozone finance ministers say Greece has submitted no new proposals to secure a deal with its international creditors at a meeting in Brussels.

They had urged Greece to submit fresh plans after its people rejected a draft bailout in a referendum.


Greek banks remain closed and there is a €60 daily limit on cash machine withdrawals

Greece said it had proposed a few changes and hoped to secure "a mutually beneficial agreement on the basis of the mandate of the referendum".

But Germany said there was "still no basis" for talks on a new bailout.

Alexis promised us that new and fairer proposals would be on the table within 24 hours, if we would only vote 'NO'.

He assured us that the EU would see the error of its ways and that they would strike a deal within 48 hours.

He swore that austerity was over 'if we wanted', and that our crippling debt would go "poufff", if we would just believe him and vote "NO".

What the hell happened?
