Key meets with UK trade minister

By: Barry Soper | International News | Sunday June 3 2012 13:12

 

The Prime Minister has met with Britain's trade minister and other senior business executives as Europe teeters on the economic abyss.

John Key's in London for the Queen's 60th Jubilee celebrations.

However the state of the economy in that part of the world is a big talking point and Mr Key's not liking what he sees.

"Spain is looking increasingly nervous. You've seen unemployment in the Eurozone go through 11 percent now and obviously there's a big test coming up for Greece on June 17 when they have their elections, so overall I'd say the situation's looking extremely vulnerable."
