BERLIN (MNI) – Finnish Finance Minister Jyrki Katainen on Thursday
praised the EU financial rescue package, but cautioned that the real
economic problems of the Eurozone still persist.
“We have managed to buy some time,” Katainen said at a conference
on financial market regulation here. But “the real economic problems are
still there.”
The minister called the rescue packages “really creative.” The fact
that an agreement on these measures was reached has shown “that there is
some political leadership in this continent.”
