France calls on Barroso to quit Goldman Sachs job
By EUobserver
French minister for European Affairs, Harlem Desir, "solemnly" called on former European Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso to renounce his new position as advisor and non-executive chairman of US investment bank, Goldman Sachs. In a letter to a French MP, he said Barroso's decision to join the bank that contributed to falsifying Greece's public accounts was "morally, politically and ethically a mistake."
