ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras says his government is aiming to return to international bond markets this year after the current round of bailout negotiations is concluded.

Tsipras said in a television interview late Tuesday that his government hopes to use the market return as a way to establish a “credible presence” in markets before the current bailout program expires next year.

Since first seeking an international bailout in 2010, Greece has only returned to the market once, in 2014 under the previous, conservative government.

Bailout inspectors from the International Monetary Fund and European Union institutions returned to Athens this week to try to hammer out an agreement in late May for the payout of future loan installments.
