(VOVworld) - The European Central Bank (ECB) decided on Wednesday to leave its emergency credit lifeline for Greece unchanged.

The ECB executive board acted as experts from the bank, the EU, and the International Monetary Fund returned to Athens to discuss a new bailout of up to 86 billion euros ($95 billion) over three years.
The Frankfurt-based bank a week earlier boosted its Emergency Liquidity Assistance for Greece's struggling banks by 900 million euros to 90.4 billion euros after Athens and its creditors reached an in-principle agreement for a third bailout in return for tough reforms.
Greece’s banks have re-opened after 3 weeks of closure following the ECB’s decision, but capital flow is still under control.
