BERLIN (MNI) – German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President
Nicolas Sarkozy will meet here Wednesday afternoon to prepare Thursday’s
Eurozone summit, the German Chancellery confirmed Wednesday.
On Tuesday, Merkel had warned against expectations that the
Eurozone leaders at the summit would be able to fully solve the
sovereign debt crisis.
While there is now a desire to end the debt crisis with a single
large step, “those who really assume political responsibility…know
that there won’t be such a spectacular single step, also not on
Thursday,” the chancellor reasoned.
No media appearance of the two leaders has been scheduled at this
time.
