Tsipras: 'We need an agenda for growth'

The Greek Prime Minister, Alexis Tsipras has said that his country ''needs an agenda for growth'' to get out of the crisis.

He made the comments while addressing the European Parliament in Strasbourg.

He said detailed proposals were being drawn up to bring about agreement with Greece's partners on resolving the debt crisis.

The eurozone had expected Greece to submit fresh plans on Tuesday after its voters rejected a deal in a referendum, but no new proposals were tabled.
