France‘s Valls says ECB should not cut support for Greek banks

The European Central Bank should not cut off support to Greek banks even if the country misses a June 30 deadline for debt repayments it cannot afford to make, French Prime Minister Manuel Valls said on Sunday

„The European Central Bank is independent, but I don‘t doubt it will assume its responsibilities,“ Valls said in an interview broadcast on Europe 1 radio. „I don‘t think it can cut off support, to put it another way.“
