Brussels, Ramadan 26, 1436, Jul 13, 2015, SPA -- Dutch Finance Minister Jeroen Dijsselbloem was re-elected Monday as the head of the Eurogroup of eurozone finance ministers, EU governments announced. "I thank my colleagues for their support and cooperation and look forward to a second term as president of the Eurogroup," Dijsselbloem wrote on Twitter. "I like his style. He is a nice guy," Slovak Finance Minister Peter Kazimir had said earlier Monday. Dijsselbloem was first elected to the post in 2013, and has been at the heart of efforts to keep near-bankrupt Greece in the eurozone. His re-election came hours after an agreement was reached on the conditions for Athens to negotiate a third bailout package, dpa reported. Dijsselbloem's new mandate runs for two and a half years. -- SPA 20:40 LOCAL TIME 17:40 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
