During Eurogroup discussions, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis warned that Greece would not accept cuts to EU farm and cohesion funding and stated he could not promise a budget deal by December. Mitsotakis requested more fiscal flexibility for targeted, temporary measures, noting that Greece has room to spend unlike some other EU countries. Separately, the Eurogroup adopted a work programme through June 2027, prioritizing competitiveness and economic sovereignty.
