China's valuable support for a strong eurozone

Knotty as it is, the unfolding Greek debt crisis is by no means unsolvable as long as confidence in a united and prosperous European Union and strong euro can prevail.

This is a key message visiting Chinese Premier Li Keqiang delivered to top EU leaders in Brussels on Monday.

At a crucial moment when pessimism has brought the Greek crisis to such a head that the country is closer to a default on its debt repayments than ever, Li offered a spark of enthusiasm to restart the stalled talks by calling on Greece and its creditors to reach a last-minute deal that will allow Greece to remain in the eurozone.
