ATHENS - Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou says he does not intend to hike taxes any further or fire civil servants to bring the country's big fiscal deficit under control.
Papandreou told a meeting with top aides Saturday that finance officials will cut excess spending.
Greece, the recipient of $151 billion in aid from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund has committed to a stringent schedule of deficit reduction but revenues have fallen short of target amid a deepening recession.
