Italy “clear and present danger” to euro zone -UK

LONDON,  (Reuters) – Italy represents a clear and  present danger to the euro zone, British Prime Minister David  Cameron said today.
“What is happening in Italy is a warning to any country, any  government, without a credible plan to deal with excessive debts  and excessive deficits that you need a plan and you need to  stick to that plan,” he said in a speech.
“Italy is the third-largest country in the euro. Its current  state is a clear and present danger to the euro zone and the  moment of truth is fast approaching,” he added.
“If the leaders of the euro zone want to save their  currenncy then they, the governments and institutions of the  euro zone, must act now.
“The longer they delay the greater the danger.”
