Feb. 10 (Bloomberg) -- The European Central Bank should participate in efforts to reduce Greece’s debt, said Luxembourg’s Jean-Claude Juncker, who leads the group of euro- area finance ministers.

“The ECB must look, within the framework of its independence, what sort of contribution it can make to the debt reduction of Greece,” Juncker told reporters in Brussels today. “I hope it will find something.”
