The euro slipped on Wednesday as the possibility Greece defaulting on debts rose, with Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras accusing bailout lenders of humiliating the country with more reductions.

His comments implied Greece does not intend to back off in its negotiations with creditors, and that the Greek government won’t make a last-minute U-turn and accept cuts necessary to access frozen aid.

The common currency was slightly changed at $1.1261 from Tuesday’s $1.1330. Against the British pound, the shared currency stood at 72.00 pence.
