instead think of the eu as a global block. and then eu suddenly has 29% of the imf voting shares. 16%. little africa, which comes in at just 5%. when you put it like that, european union can clearly outvote almost everybody else. but it won't be enough just do it on their own. the europeans really do need to rope in others for political acceptance and expediency. you'll have the europeans with 30-odd percent. they'll bring in hopefully the americans because the merns want to keep the world bank. maybe add in a couple of favorites from elsewhere. and the overarching effect will be this. eu plus u.s. equals imf. don't expect any change any time soon. >> richard quest reporting there. despite richard's math, emerging economies want to say who gets to be the next imf chief. read about that part of the story at cnn.com/international. >>> queen elizabeth on the eave of her final day. the audience rose and cheered when the queen met performers. they're calling the groundbreaking visit a success that has succeeded expectations and a buckingham spokeswoman said the queen and her husband ha

this is poland's first opportunity to take on this leadership role since joining the eu.eaks to the incredible progress that poland has made both politically and economically during this period of time. and we look forward to working closely with poland as it assumes these new responsibilities. along those lines, we are interested and excited about poland's plans for the eastern partnership as a priority of its eu presidency. i understand it will host a summit this fall to raise awareness and support for eastern europe and the south caucuses and the dinner i had yesterday was an indication of poland's leadership in helping to shape a vision for the region that continues down a path that offers more opportunity and more prosperity to people and, obviously, one of the important roles that poland can play is not just as a promoter of ideas but as a living example of what is possible when countries take reform seriously. we're also aiming to expand our bilateral economic relationship with poland as the prime minister mentioned. poland's economy was the only economy in the eu

so we will work with the eu to facilitate more trade within the region, build on existing agreements to promote integration with u.s.and european markets, and open the door for those countries who adopt high standards of reform and trade liberalization to construct a regional trade arrangement. and just as eu membership served as an incentive for reform in europe, so should the vision of a modern and prosperous economy create a powerful force for reform in the middle east and north africa. prosperity also requires tearing down walls that stand in the way of progress -- the corruption of elites who steal from their people, the red tape that stops an idea from becoming a business, the patronage that distributes wealth based on tribe or sect. we will help governments meet international obligations, and invest efforts at anti- corruption -- by working with parliamentarians who are developing reforms, and activists who use technology to increase transparency and hold government accountable. politics and human rights, economic reform. let me conclude by talking about another cornerstone of

the united states won't have much impact on europe because as you may know, the current bonds of the eu or the euro as a region is quite small. the euro is not dependent on chapter flow from outside. so qe2 may cause a reduction of chapter out of the united states to other regions. that impact is not going to be felt by european countries much. so i think the most impact will be felt by emerging economies, in particular, latin america. >> the euro is strengthening against the dollar recently. how is the euro likely to trade against the dollar in the longer term? >> for the time being, i bet that the euro is going to weaken because, you know, people talk about the possibility that the euro is going to be broken up to two groups. it's quite feasible and possible. but i don't think this kind of break-up is going to be realized opinion a year or two. so in the long run, there's a real possibility that the euro as a single currency is not going to be maintained. imagine when you try to hold the euro denominated assets. you don't feel safe. i think the euro is likely to weaken against other c
