Brussels: Eurozone finance ministers included an option for a temporary Greek exit from the euro if Athens fails to agree a bailout deal, according to a document drafted today.

If a deal is reached, Greece's bailout needs could amount to between USD 91.5-96 billion, said the document submitted to eurozone leaders at an emergency summit. "In case no agreement could be reached, Greece should be offered swift negotiations on a time-out from the euro area, with possible debt restructuring," the document obtained by AFP said.
