Business Insider: Greece's latest payment deadline is in 24 hours — and Athens is desperate for positive news from Europe

Greece is at the top of the agenda at the Eurogroup meeting once again. The finance ministers of the eurozone are gathering in Brussels on Monday, just 24 hours before Greece's latest major debt repayment.

On Tuesday, Greece has a €767 million ($856.6 million, £555.4 million) payment to make to the International Monetary Fund (IMF). That's the biggest payment the country has had to make to its international creditors since the new Syriza-led government took power.
