Greek bailout referendum 'a sad decision' says Eurogroup's Dijsselbloem

The head of the Eurogroup of finance ministers - Jeroen Dijsselbloem - has said Greece's decision to hold a referendum over the future of its bailout programme was a "sad" decision that has "closed the door" on further talks.

The Greek parliament is currently meeting to ratify the proposal.

Speaking to reporters, Mr Dijsselbloem said he was disappointed by the latest move by Greece.
