FRANKFURT (MNI) – The crisis in the Eurozone is “not because of the
currency but rather because of the imperfection of the economic and
currency union,” European Central Bank Governing Council member Yves
Mersch said in an interview released Monday.

Speaking to the Luxembourg-based publication, Wort, Mersch also
criticized those who have never liked the single currency for now making
it “responsible for the crisis.”
