"When we have a shared [opinion] of German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President François Hollande, we will have a real chance of reaching a common position among the 28 EU member states," Tusk said.

"My first task is to reach a compromise between Berlin and Paris. It is easier to achieve this than reach agreement between all 28 EU member states," Tusk said.

"I know that their recommendations will be accepted by Lithuania, as well as by Greece," he said.
