Germany's Schaeuble calls on Greece to 'clarify its position'

BERLIN (AFP) - German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said Wednesday crisis-hit Greece was sending mixed signals in debt talks and called on its government to "clarify its position" before negotiations with creditors can resume.

Schaeuble pointed to conflicting reports on whether Athens still plans a weekend referendum on bailout terms and whether it would support a yes or no vote, noting "all of this is no basis for discussions on serious measures."
"That's why first of all Greece must clarify its position on what it wants, and then we will have to talk about it, under conditions that are now far more difficult," Schaeuble told a Berlin press conference.
