ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece’s prime minister said his government is in talks with rescue lenders over a possible precautionary credit line to ease the country’s exit from its 240 billion euro ($308 billion) bailout program.

Antonis Samaras, speaking to reporters Friday at a summit in Milan, said the credit line was “an item negotiation.” He did not clarify whether the credit line would come from other euro countries or the International Monetary Fund.
