member that in your view can actually say the euro has been good for it no i don't think so as the northern states did not to profit from the euro but it didn't. harm them eyes up to no maybe the two for the future. thousand states including france. probably get it first from the credit boom which went on to the two thousand and five. ten or there are being damaged by the rising. cost to con balanced if it's. by rising in terms of debt. by holding cause rates. which which
10:33 am
includes. cut down on the public expenditure and. improve the competitiveness by. lowering the prices and close. to even even more harm so they have before the. a long and complicated road so what's your recipe do you think that greece or arlen should accept the union or as some economists suggest the germination show delayed than exit the euro zone itself we have a not know their choice but to. stick to the agreement to the must be treaty. but we. should insist that all members of the euro area.
10:34 am
also or to stick to the treaty and this means the north of the b. lot and this means that the. e c b. s to return. to it. to its regular ball this is to the surprise economies with the sufficient supply of money but on hand to. prevent any rise of inflation right now is the if we do you this is a means of the of the monetary policy. calling public sector are definitely. going to call on. obvious and states by the way of printing money and saying this is
10:35 am
a wrong cause because for me in the long run more information essential what you are suggesting is that germany should put forward an ultimatum the records of those who. pay for the property. we can't simply stop the building of the other members of the single currency union. and to this would mean that they have either. they would have. have to change their ways of dealing with the economy or they would have to leave as a union you've been together through some good times and now the tables have turned so do you think it's ok to abandon somebody you made strong commitment to at the
10:36 am
time of crisis while. at a monetary union was based on the treaty of mastery treaty and all that i'm saying is that we have to stick have to start again to stick to the treaty and to the regulations of this to keep because this is the only way that. a currency. union can work and if others choose not to stick to the treaty or if the. common currency proves to be too strong for them then it is their decision to leave the currency union this is not not a question of. bendern in. any body. but it
10:37 am
is the question of making the currency union work angela merkel said that europe collapses europe will collapse. what shape do you think these collapse may take are we talking about a full blown catastrophe or just some sort of political divorce she said. or. so best translation of her. would be is to fail so she says if the euro fails to europe. and this is the political threat and it is a means. to get people and political parties and their turnover of. the public to
10:38 am
agree to the kind of policy but. one has to ask what that means. to what is europe. to europe is first and foremost. continent which. stretches from the good part to. the rule is much more than the currency union. in addition. to europe is a cultural idea and it is as far as the european union is concerned it. it is the economic union. and nothing of this does. so you will feel that because.

of the success story of your pin community was written between nineteen forty five and nineteen ninety nine this. i to have a century of peace of grows of growing employment of the social security and so on. to nice in which. we. are was created in the necessitated common single. and. in or to. preserve these the values and these achievements. the common currency is not necessary it. can have it may have it is maybe
10:40 am
some seeing the nice to have but it is definitely not the must have one of the reasons why your book became such a controversy is because you're invoking the holocaust which you believe is behind germany's guilt complex that also one of the reasons why it's so dedicated to the unification of europe i want to ask you how big of a role do you think politics history other emotional factors that playing in. making fiscal decisions are those decisions based on arithmetics or more or less in history books it's my concern that. we. we have already taken and to continue to enforce the anomaly and financially the wrong decisions
10:41 am
which are to the disadvantage of virtually all members of the of the monetary union because. we. feel that the buy or past even within europe different people have different work ethics they have different saving and spending habits how big a factor culture or mentality is when it comes to. financial and fiscal policies different need different systems and does it what was the great mistake. in the. organization. and that was in the concept of the currency union was that we
