Fabian Zuleeg, Janis A. Emmanouilidis
EPC Commentary
07/2012

Emmanouilidis, however, argue that Europe needs Greece to stay in the euro: not only because it is economically the least costly and least risky option, but also because it is the only way to sustain the real achievements of the European integration process: a European Union which safeguards not only the prosperity of the economically strongest, but also peace, prosperity and democracy for all its citizens.
