Following months of negotiations, Greece and its lenders reached a mid-July $95 billion preliminary agreement on a new bailout package for the country, to be delivered over the next three years in exchange for oppressive economic reforms.

Greece has a massive debt to its three main creditors — the International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank and the eurozone nations. The country is struggling to fulfill the conditions of the new bailout, which include painful austerity measures.
