The concern over the Greek debt crisis has turned into panic, and has spread to other parts of the Eurozone. The latest casualty is Italy, whose stock market has plummeted in recent days over concerns that it will follow Greece into the debt sinkhole. Meanwhile, Germany is yet again blaming the three rating agencies for at least part of the EU’s problems, and proposes to end their “oligarchy” in the Eurozone.

In other news, France has changed its stance on Libya, and has now decided that negotiations between the rebels and the Qaddafi regime would be the best way to end the war.
