With EU leaders scrambling to keep Greece afloat, rating agencies continuing to downgrade European sovereign credit, banks being pushed to the brink, and Europe likely slipping back into recession, time may be running out for the euro.

Jacob Kirkegaard of the Peterson Institute for International Economics, Desmond Lachman of the American Enterprise Institute, Liliana Rojas-Suarez of the Center for Global Development, Antonio de Lecea of the EU Delegation to the United States, and Carnegie’s Uri Dadush will offer their answers.
