According to the ECB, the Germans did not take advantage of the crisis and are even poorer now than other Europeans. For the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, this is proof that they should not pay for the mistakes of others, and they need to better allocate their wealth.
Germany is taking advantage of its robust economic health to firm up its presence on the international stage. However, trade is the engine of a diplomacy that still fears embracing military interventions, a stance which remains popular with the German public.
Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben has revived the idea of a union of Southern European countries, a proposal first launched by another philosopher, Alexandre Kojève, just after World War II. This "Latin Empire" could act as a counter weight to the dominant role played by Germany in the European Union.
Russia, despite owning a large chunk of the cash deposited in the island’s banks, is resisting the increasingly desperate pleas for aid from the Cypriot government. Instead of rushing in, the Great Bear is sitting back and awaiting the Europeans’ next move.

He’s regarded as one of the meanest Germans in the cybersphere: Martin Münch supplies police and secret services with spyware, which some dictators use to terrorize dissidents.
To cope with the decline in the price of CO2 emission permits, the European Parliament wants to take 900 million tonnes off the European market. But that won’t be enough to halt the trend. The economic crisis is just too deep.
