As a part of regional policy discussion, we wolud like to point your attention to two interesting articles:
First is an interview with Jean-Claude Trichet, President of the European Central Bank, published by the Robert Schuman Foundation.
We also recomend an article Do BRICs (and Germans) eat PIGS?, written by investment analyst John Mauldin. As it opened some questions Trichet is referring in above mentioned interview, we think that you sholud read it first.

Any comments are appreciated.
