Putin: Brexit could prompt eurozone break-up
By EUobserver
Russian leader Putin has told Bloomberg that the eurozone could shrink into a core group of wealthy members as a reaction to Brexit. "I don’t rule out that there could be some decisions made that would consolidate a group of countries with equal levels of development", he said. He said Russia is not betting on the euro's collapse because it holds 40% of its foreign reserves in the single currency.
