FRANKFURT (MNI) – Germany needs to play a stronger role in European
crisis management, the president of the World Bank, Robert Zoellick,
said in a magazine interview published Wednesday.

“Germany should give Europe a direction,” Zoellick told the German
weekly Die Zeit. “This could increase the European pressure on those
that are not conducting a sustainable policy,” he said.
