"The discussions, taking place now among European Union member countries, are of how to upgrade credit rating functions in the European Union. I think it is very important. I hope there will be decisions to be taken very soon," she said.

Greece should be able to return to the bond markets earlier than expected if Athens made positive results on the fiscal side, she said.
