Who Will be More Guilty - the EU or the US There is a serious drooping lately at the EU-US summits. Last year it was caused, aside by the consequences from the crisis but also by the philosophical question - why after all do we need summits with the EU since it is not very clear who is talking on behalf of the Community. This year the su ...
Michel Barnier: The US to stick to their commitments In a moment when the fates of many euro area countries, but also of the United States and Japan are being defined by the credit rating agencies; in a moment when the developed world is not so sure whether it has exited the economic crisis, while the emerging markets score over and over; and in a ...
