Greek finance minister: Debt negotiations must be completed by late Sunday

A pedestrian passes a beggar off Athens' main Syntagma Square, on Friday, Feb. 3, 2012. Unions and employers' associations in Greece on Friday rejected private-sector wage cuts, as demanded by the country's international bailout lenders if Athens is to receive a crucial, second rescue package. The impasse appeared to be holding up final negotiations for massive new debt agreements _ a eurozone finance ministers' meeting, which had been expected for Monday to back the new proposals, was postponed to later in the week.

ATHENS, Greece - Greece is under heavy pressure from its creditors to implement further austerity and structural measures if it wants to get a second, €130 billion ($171 billion) bailout, and avoid bankruptcy.
