EU summit didn’t discuss establishing eurobonds immediately – rompuy

YEREVAN, May 24. /ARKA/. EU 27 leaders didn’t discuss establishing eurobonds immediately at the summit in Brussels, President of the European Council Herman Van Rompuy declared at the press conference after the session, RIA Novosti reports.

He added that no country stands for immediate establishment of the eurobonds, and the leaders just discussed them as a long-term project for deepening monetary union.

The newly elected French president François Hollande pointed out that eurozone debt liability had to be retained as an option for saving the currency. Germany however, responded against it, stating that this option may equal the revenue of weak and strong euro zone countries thus blurring  the risk boundaries. —0–
