France's Hollande steps up eurobonds push

French President Francois Hollande stepped up his push Thursday for the launch of eurobonds at a summit of EU leaders in Brussels.

Hollande said he wanted to see eurobonds “written into the agenda” of the European Union going forward, saying he saw jointly pooled eurozone debt not as a trigger for growth “but as a long-term perspective for integration” that would bolster the single euro currency.
