There has been no progress in narrowing these differences recently. Thus, we are well away from an agreement,&#8221; said IMF spokesman Gerry Rice. He added that the fund remained ready to resume talks. \u201cThe ball is very much in Greece\u2019s court right now,\u201d Rice said.<\/p>\n<p>EU officials have expressed increasing frustration with the Greek government. \u201cThe day is coming, I\u2019m afraid, that someone says the game is over. We have no more time,\u201d Donald Tusk, the president of the European Council, said on Thursday after meeting with Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras.<\/p>\n<p>But the political mood in the ruling coalition may be changing, and that would make a last minute compromise deal possible. Greek negotiators are to meet with the Eurogroup on June 18 in what now looks to be a final showdown.<\/p>\n<p>Greece is set to run out of funds to run its banks and public services by the end of June. The government must also repay about $2 billion to the IMF by the end of the month.<\/p>\n<p>Greece must agree reforms to cut government spending and produce a budget surplus if it is to receive the next 7.2 billion euros ($8.1 billion) in bailout aid from the IMF, the European Central Bank and the EU.<\/p>\n<p>Without external funding, Greece could default on payments due to its creditors, raising the risk of it possibly leaving the 19-member Eurozone.<\/p>\n<p>SYRIZA MEP Kostas Chrysogonos also indicated on Thursday that the government might back down. \u201cIt\u2019s not as if we\u2019ve won a war against our lenders in order to impose conditions on them,\u201d he said in an interview with Greek newspaper Kathimerini (Anadolu Agency).<\/p>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #f00;\">Error, group does not exist!
