Creditors agree terms to disburse Greece's ?8.5bn bailout funds

At last, the EU has come up with a plan to get Greece out of the huge mess it was allowed to drop into.

Creditors agree terms to disburse Greece's ?8.5bn bailout funds

Quote:
For the best part of a decade, Greece has wanted to become a ?normal? country, and late on Thursday it appeared to begin that process, after creditors agreed to disburse ?8.5bn (£7.4bn) of bailout funds aimed at putting the debt-stricken nation back on the road to recovery.

The money, signed off after months of disagreement between the European Union and International Monetary Fund over how to reduce Athens? staggering debt pile, will be released in July, once European parliaments ratify the deal.
Who will eventually pay for that debt?
