The European debt crisis has spread from Greece to Italy, and expert Domenico Lombardi warns the contagion will continue unless structural reforms can be put in place and Greece stabilized. Lombardi argues that the problem is affecting the Euro region as a whole, and greater central coordination of financial policies is needed to reassure markets in Europe and across the globe.
