YEREVAN, MAY 19, ARMENPRESS: The leaders the world's largest
economies, including the new French president, are meeting in the
United States this weekend for the G8 conference, reports Armenpress
citing Euronews.
Francois Hollande met US president Barack Obama at the White House
ahead of the talks. Obama supports the idea of stimulating growth in
Europe, and both men want to see the eurozone remain intact.
"We share the belief that Greece must remain inside the eurozone,
and that everyone must make an effort to achieve that," said Hollande.
"The Greeks will be consulted again in June elections and I want to
send this message to the Greek people."
But with German Chancellor Angela Merkel insisting that the focus on
austerity has to continue, the way ahead could prove difficult.
Officials say the US hopes to encourage a comprehensive approach to
solving Europe's problems.
