Angela and Nicolas. Mario and Angela. The year is starting with a burst of speed-dating among the leaders of the euro zone's three biggest economies. Their talk is of the single currency, which is threatened by economic failings in Mario Monti's Italy, Nicolas Sarkozy's France and in even weaker Mediterranean countries--but also by dogmatism in Angela Merkel's Germany. The three leaders accept that they have not averted all the dangers, but claim to be making progress. "We have laid the groundwork for the medium term but have not yet won back trust," said Mrs Merkel after her meeting with Mr Sarkozy on January 9th. All are minding their manners, and yet tensions are apparent. Mr Monti, a technocrat (and former European commissioner) who took over from the populist Silvio Berlusconi in November, marked his visit to Berlin by warning Die Welt, a newspaper, that Italians could turn against the painful reforms he is trying to enact, and that Europe and Germany would be blamed. Mr Sarkozy, who faces a tough re-election fight this spring, carefully hides his differences with Mrs Merkel but sympathises with Mr Monti. The trio, an expanded version of the familiar Merkozy ensemble, will all convene in Rome on January 20th. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
