Greece's Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis

Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis said Wednesday Athens' formal request for a loan extension from the EU would meet the demands of both the Greeks and the Eurogroup.
"We are on the right path, I am optimistic it will end well tomorrow or the next day," he told reporters in Athens.
"Our proposition will be written in such a way that it will cover both the demands of the Greek side and the head of the Eurogroup," he said.
