EU Commission President says Greek referendum will be about staying in the Euro

European Commission President Jean Claude Juncker says Sunday's referendum in Greece on whether to accept a eurozone bailout offer, will determine whether Greece stays in the euro. 

In a press address in Brussels, Mr. Juncker had harsh words for Greece saying he was disappointed with the Greek government's decision to call a snap referendum after working hard to organize a deal for Greece but that he would respect the democratic process.

Mr. Juncker said the Greek people have not been well informed about the creditors' proposal, which they vote on next week, but urged them to vote 'yes'.

OUT: "...to be done."
