Kenny to meet EU leaders in Brussels

Taoiseach Enda Kenny meets EU leaders in Brussels today promising to raise Ireland's case for a cheaper bailout deal - if he gets the opportunity.

While today's meeting of the European Council will focus on the Greek debt crisis, with pressure mounting on Athens to pass stringent austerity measures in return for their second bailout, the Taoiseach says he will raise Ireland's case for a cut in the interest rate in the EU portion of the bailout deal if there is an opportunity to do so.
