EPC Post-Summit Analysis

EU leaders are expected to deliver a ‘final solution’ to manage and eventually overcome the euro crisis. This analysis of the first round of summits by Janis A. Emmanouilidis shows that much work still lies ahead and warns that EU leaders might not be able to deliver (all) the expected results. The final outcome of the current summit marathon will have to be evaluated on the basis of whether EU leaders have added essential ingredients to an already very complex crisis recipe and whether they have been able to sketch a more ambitious and persuasive roadmap that boosts confidence and provides orientation in the weeks and months to come.

The EPC Post-Summit Analysis was published on 24 October 2011 and can also be found on the EPC website here.
