United States Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew will visit Athens on Wednesday and Thursday to discuss fiscal reforms with Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos ahead of traveling to the G20 meeting in Chengdu on Saturday and Sunday

“The secretary will encourage the government to continue making strong progress on reforms this summer so that European leaders can begin discussing with the International Monetary Fund the timing and details of debt relief this fall” the US Treasury said in a statement.
 
Later, at the G20 meeting, the Treasury official said the group's top finance officials would discuss the implications of the Brexit vote on the global economy and would repeat their past calls for countries to use all available tools to promote strong, sustainable and balanced growth.
 
“There is scope to think about particularly fiscal policy in a more systematic and comprehensive way than we have so far” the official added.
