BRUSSELS (AP) – The latest from Greece’s financial crisis (all times local):

1:55 p.m.

Finance ministers from the 19-country eurozone were arriving in Brussels for a crucial meeting that could determine whether Greece can retain its place in the euro.

They come knowing that the Greek parliament overwhelmingly passed early Saturday a package of reform and austerity measures that the government of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras hopes will convince creditors to grant his country a three-year bailout.

The response to the proposals appears to have assuaged some concerns in Europe but it appears Greece will still have to do more.
