Athens, April 30 (RHC)-- Greece is expected to discuss with its international creditors a draft bill of reforms aimed at unblocking bailout funds for the cash-strapped country.

Unidentified government sources said on Wednesday that the bill will be discussed with representatives of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), European Central Bank and European Commission during a meeting in the Belgian capital city of Brussels.

Meanwhile, Greece’s Deputy Prime Minister Yannis Dragasakis expressed optimism that the two sides would reach at least an interim agreement in the first few days of May, saying: "Today we are seeking a solution. But 'any solution' is not good enough. It must be a viable solution.”

The Greek government's proposed reforms reportedly include measures put forward by Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis during the negotiations that have been ongoing for three months with the lenders aimed at the recovery of the country's tattered economy.

Athens hopes that the reforms will be sufficient for its creditors to unblock USD-7.9-billion in remaining bailout money that the Mediterranean country needs to avoid defaulting on its foreign debt.
