    Merkel not sure of saving Greece from meltdown

    Angela Merkel casts doubt on saving Greece from financial meltdown | World news | The Guardian

    that headline will calm the markets.

    Angela Merkel has cast doubt for the first time on Europe's chances of saving Greece from financial meltdown and sovereign default, conceding that Europe's first ever multibillion bailout coupled with savage austerity was not working after two years of crisis that has brought the single currency to the brink of unravelling.
    however the actual quotes look less sensational

    "We haven't overcome the crisis yet," Merkel said. "Of course, there's Greece, a special case where, despite all the efforts that have been made, neither the Greeks themselves nor the international community have yet managed to stabilise the situation."
    The woman is not for turning on EU, Euro etc
