it is nothing that will make the french president francois hollande anymore positive. in germany, positive growth, but -- and things are slightly improving, and that is important because it has been the locomotive of the euro zone economy. the governor blames harsh weather. there is a diversion to economically that could make it hard for the two of them to come together to propose solutions as they have done during that european crisis. francois hollande is a socialist and cannot be seen as imposing more austerity, and conversely angela merkel is appreciated because of her tough stance on austerity. ?> how will this go forward is austerity still looking like the way to go? as you are saying, france cannot keep pushing austerity. >> i think the mood music about austerity has been changing with the european commission notably giving france two more years to reach the deficit target of three percent of gdp. the european central banks making money cheaper. germany is looking increasingly isolated in pushing for austerity. of course, it does not decide a loan, but these thi
