At least action is being taken!
Everyone worldwide is trying to fix the global financial crisis.
Several leaders of the “Group of Eight” major industrial countries said Wednesday that they will meet in the near future in order to come up with strategies to deal with the current problems.
The eight countries consist of the United States, Britain, Canada, Japan, Germany, France, Italy, and Russia.
In a joint statement released by the White House, the leaders of G-8 said they would strengthen their financial institutions and would work on restoring confidence by meeting “at an appropriate time in the near future.”
The G-8 nations will also include other key countries in their discussions. Aside from including the richest countries, they’ll also include those with emerging economies, such as India and China.
The current goal is to draft “an agenda for reforms to meet the challenges of the 21st century.”
Reports say the meeting could be as soon as November.
The sooner the better!
On Wednesday, Britain’s Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, said “I believe there is scope for agreement in the next few days that we will have an international meeting to take common action … for very large and very radical changes.”
Mavericks getting radical! Crazy times.
