What will be held this morning in Brussels will be a “routine meeting, to prepare the Eurogroup, and not an emergency one to talk about the attack on Italy on the markets. It will be a weekly coordination meeting between the President of the European Council Van Rompuy and the President of the European Commission Josè Manuel Durao Barroso”. Thus the EU clarify the nature of the appointment set for these hours, after yesterday there was talk of an emergency meeting of the Council to discuss the debt crisis in the Eurozone and the speculative attacks on Italy.
Since the meeting is "on economic and financial current affairs", Van Rompuy has decided to also invite the president of the ECB Jean-Claude Trichet, the president of the Eurogroup Jean-Claude Juncker, the commissioner for economic and monetary affairs Olli Rehn and the director of the Italian Treasury Vittorio Grilli, in his capacity as president of the European Economic and Financial Committee. Despite everything, according to observers it is not excluded that we are also talking about Italy and its fragility in the face of speculative attacks.
