Message
to European people:
“German
Chancellor Angela Merkel on Tuesday warned that Europe could slide
back into recession, German newspaper Frankfurt Allgemeine reported.
'If we do not want to be left behind by the growth markets, then
Europe has to hurry up,' Merkel told a conference of European
family entrepreneurs here. [...] Given the increasing weight of Asia
in the global economy, 'Europe is no longer the measure of all
things,' said Merkel.”

“The Dutch finance minister and
Eurogroup chairman, Jeroen Dijsselbloem, stated that Germany must
do more to enhance its competitiveness, mentioned reforms
implemented by Spain, Portugal and Ireland in recent years, adding
that Berlin would be well-advised not to rest on its laurels.
[...] Germany becomes now a key factor for the desirable
federalization of the eurozone through an unprecedented 'haircut'
of the social state, labor rights, pensions and salaries, in the
name of the fiscal discipline and competitiveness.”
“In
overpopulated developing countries there are huge potential
consumer tanks. Their consuming power will rise and the complete
automatization of the production there will take decades. However,
the suitable conditions should be created first, in the aged and
saturated West, in order a limit in wages to be established and
the expansion of the Western social state model to be prevented
because all these things mean an additional cost for the global
economic oligarchy:”

Message
to the lobbyists:
“She
[Angela Merkel] called for an early conclusion of ongoing trade
agreement negotiations with Canada and the United States. [...] She
noted that opportunities may outweigh risks once the free-trade
agreements with Canada and United States are put into place.”

“Canadian subsidiaries of
US-headquartered multinationals will also be able to use CETA to
sue European governments, even if the EU eventually excludes or
limits investor-state dispute settlement within the Transatlantic
Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) currently under
negotiation with the US. This is particularly worrying for
Europeans as US corporations dominate the Canadian economy.”
