"This challenge is existential. And we have to rise to it. "I'll boil it down to its core: The euro is the foundation for growth and prosperity, along with the common market -- also for Germany. The euro is in danger. "If we don't deal with this danger, then the consequences for us in Europe are incalcuable."
