Greece has not asked Russia for money to help cope with its debt and financial problems and wants to resolve them within the European Union, a Greek government official said on Wednesday. “We have not asked for financial aid,” the official saidbefore talks in Moscow between Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Greek government official said the two leaders would discuss economic cooperation and bilateral investment and exports, but made clear that Greece would do so within the framework of the EU.
