Abstract:
European economic policy-makers continue to discuss which measures to take to restore financial markets' confidence in the credit-worthiness of countries with high sovereign debts. Meanwhile, borrowing costs have risen also for states with relatively low debt levels. The real economy continues to lose momentum, although there are still no signs of a sharp fall in economic output.
