PM Fico says Slovakia will back France's proposal on eurobonds

Robert Fico said (about François Hollande) : "French President Francois Hollande has indicated that both project and standard eurobonds are his foremost priority and one that should lead to some sort of restructuring of European debt. Our view for now is that when this idea comes up for debate we'll stand on France's side,"

Robert Fico stated: "Speaking on behalf of the Slovak government, I'm stating that we're ready to support initiatives aimed at supporting economic growth but without putting the right objectives for consolidation of public finances at risk. Slovakia is committed to consolidating its public finances as planned, that is to achieve a deficit of 4.6 percent this year and 3 percent in 2013,"

Robert Fico stated: "Despite the situation in Greece and the status of the permanent rescue facility ESM being serious and topical issues, they won't be brought up at the forthcoming informal summit. The issues will be broached at the official summit in the latter half of June instead,"

Slovakia will back France's initiative to issue eurobonds to fund specific investment projects as well as cover debts involving eurozone countries under certain circumstances, said Prime Minister Robert Fico at a session of the parliamentary committee for European affairs on May 21, the TASR newswire reported....
