Euro Slips on Disagreement Between EU Policy Makers

The euro slid today as the European policy makers were divided on today’s meeting in their opinion on how to deal with the Eurozone sovereign-debt crisis.

The official of the European Union met today in Brussels to discuss the possible ways out of the debt crisis. Didier Reynders, the Belgian Minister of Finance, whose country holds the EU presidency until the end of this year, proposed to increase the â‚¬750 billion ($1 trillion) bailout fund. Angela Merkel, the Chancellor of Germany, and Nicolas Sarkozy, the President of France, were opposed to this proposition.
