Athens - US Treasury Secretary Jack Lew urged Greece to find a quick “constructive path” towards a bailout deal with its creditors, Greek media reports.

Lew called Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis to warn him that Greece would face immediate hardship without an agreement and that the current deadlock is not good for Europe.
