EU leaders dismiss speculation over euro
Luxembourg’s prime minister today dismissed any possibility individual countries might abandon the euro and called on EU leaders to show the world the 25-nation bloc is still functioning despite the apparent demise of its proposed constitution.
“It is just inconceivable that a country could envisage dropping out of the euro. The euro belongs to us all,” Jean-Claude Juncker, whose country holds the rotating EU presidency, said on the second day of EU finance ministers’ talks.
