Greece's Varoufakis pushes for bailout deal

Greek ministers have launched a concerted effort to persuade European officials to release more bailout money as the government runs out of cash.

The Eurozone finance ministers are meeting on Monday, just a day before the Greek government has to repay more than a billion dollars to the International Monetary Fund.

Speaking after meeting his French counterpart in Paris, Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis said it was important that "good progress" should be solidified.
