No plans for immediate Eurogroup meeting after Greek vote - EU official

Greece Votes No In EU Referendum - Poll

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - There are no plans for an emergency meeting of euro zone finance ministers on Greece on Monday after Greeks voted overwhelmingly to reject the terms of a bailout deal with international creditors, a euro zone official said on Sunday.

Asked whether a meeting of the Eurogroup was planned for Monday, the official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters: "No way. (The ministers) would not know what to discuss."

The European Commission had no immediate comment on the early results, which showed a 60-40 'No' vote against the conditions of a cash-for-reforms deal to keep the country afloat, which the leftist Greek government rejected this month.
