Disappointment that the bailout (handout) process  will be a slow grind yet again?   risktaker      ( Date: 03-Nov-2011 06:25) Posted: France, Germany Demand Greek Decision on Euro Reuters | November 02, 2011 | 01:08 PM EDT Germany and France told Greece on Wednesday it should make up its mind by mid-December whether it wants to stay in the euro zone when Greeks vote on a 130 billion euro ($178 billion) bailout. French President Nicolas Sarkozy and Germany's Angela Merkel summoned Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou for crisis talks in Cannes, before a Group of 20 (G20) summit of major world economies, to push for rapid implementation of measures to tackle the euro zone sovereign debt crisis, which Athens has thrown into doubt. Sarkozy said Papandreou's announcement of a referendum "took the whole of Europe by surprise" and his prime minister, Francois Fillon, told parliament: "Europe cannot be kept waiting for weeks for the outcome of the referendum. The Greeks must say quickly and without ambiguity whether they choose to keep their place in the euro zone or not." Opinion polls suggest most Greeks think the deal thrashed out by euro zone leaders last week is a bad one, but much will depend on how Papandreou frames the debate, either on the bailout — and the painful cuts it demands — or membership of the euro, which remains popular. Greece's European partners will press for the latter. German Chancellor Merkel struck the same tone of exasperation and impatience as Fillon in comments before flying to Cannes for hastily arranged meetings of European Union policymakers and with Papandreou. "We agreed a plan for Greece last week," she said at a news conference with Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan. "We want to put this plan into practice, but for this we need clarity and the meeting tonight should help with precisely this." Germany's finance ministry hinted that European partners and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) may withhold the next 8 billion euro ($11 billion) aid installment to Athens, due this month, until after the referendum. "The tranche has not yet been paid. That is the situation today. How things proceed is yet to be seen. But according to everything we hear from Greece, there is no urgent need for the payout until mid-December, more or less," finance ministry spokesman Martin Kotthaus said. EU leaders endorsed the disbursement of the money last week, but the IMF board has yet to set a date for a decision. An IMF source said the way forward would depend on the outcome of Wednesday's EU talks with Papandreou, which IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde will join. French officials said Papandreou would be pressed to put the bailout deal to parliament first in hopes of reassuring financial markets which panicked when he called the plebiscite. Weeks of Uncertainty Win or lose, his gamble guarantees weeks of uncertainty, just as the 17-nation European currency area is desperate for a period of calm to implement the remedies agreed to corral its sovereign debt crisis. Some in Papandreou's party called for him to quit, accusing him of endangering euro membership with his shock decision to call a popular vote, a move that pummeled the euro and stocks. The Socialist prime minister battled late into the night to win cabinet support, giving him at least a stay of execution before a confidence vote in parliament on Friday. "The referendum will be a clear mandate and a clear message inside and outside Greece on our European course and participation in the euro," Papandreou said at a cabinet meeting that lasted seven hours. European Commission chief Jose Manuel Barroso urged Greeks to unite in support of the bailout plan, warning that the alternative would be too ghastly to predict. "Without the agreement of Greece to the EU/IMF program, the conditions for Greek citizens would become much more painful, in particular for the most vulnerable," he said. "The consequences would be impossible to foresee." If Papandreou wins the confidence vote, the euro zone faces a period of policy vacuum in which markets can create havoc. If he loses, Greece faces a disorderly default which would hammer Europe's banks and threaten the much larger economies of Italy and Spain, which the bloc may not have the means to bail out. As a result, the Greek premier's move has aroused anger and surprise in equal measure around the world. "That's enough now: Greeks out!" Kronen Zeitung, Austria's biggest-selling paper, said on its front page. The chairman of euro zone finance ministers, Jean-Claude Juncker, said Greece could go bankrupt if voters rejected the bailout package and Japanese Finance Minister Jun Azumi said: "Everyone is bewildered." Juncker, European Council President Herman Van Rompuy, European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso, IMF chief Christine Lagarde and an European Central Bank (ECB) official will also attend Wednesday's talks in the southern French resort town.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Many will bet their lives staunchly insisting that the stock market is not a casino.     Strictly speaking of course it is not a casino, since one can do tons and tomes         of analysis and study about stocks and their companies.                   But the real dynamics of the markets, through human action,                           make it virtually a casino in reality... lol...
