Mr President, I am totally and vehemently opposed to the idea that one or two Member States should be forced to leave the euro area. That will not solve anything and will only exacerbate ...
It will only exacerbate problems for the countries in question. Firstly for those countries, and secondly, for the currency area as a whole; and that would entail massive risks beyond the single currency area.
Greece has no problem, nor do Ireland and Portugal, because they are members of the euro area. It was not the unemployed in Greece or workers in Ireland who brought about the downfall of Lehman Brothers. What is more, I take issue with the lectures received from the other side of the Atlantic which, oddly enough, make no mention of the real reasons why we are in this situation.
It is in the interest of the other Member States of the euro area – those who are weak and those who are stronger – in other words, the 27, and it is in the interest of the other European countries surrounding the 27, that the currency area remains consistent both in terms of content and geography."@en1
