The eurozone’s fundamental problem
For those with an interest in the interminable eurozone saga, this syndicated interview with the French president Francois Hollande is well worth reading. It sets out clearly the main current differences in approach between M. Hollande and Mrs Merkel as they set off for the latest European summit, which starts today. As always the meeting will attempt to paper over the cracks between these two very different ideas of how greater political and fiscal union in Europe should be achieved. There is still a long way to go before a really durable solution that can guarantee the euro’s survival is reached (if indeed that proves to be possible).
