Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and Italy together account for 40% of the eurozone's debt.


Ummm, this looks a bit like misleading statistics to me. Those countries added together have 133 million people, what is the population of the Eurozone?

EU population is 500 million, take 61m off for UK, 10m off for Sweden, 5m off for Denmark (which are not in the Eurozone) and that makes it at most 425 million people in the Eurozone. So those countries make up more than 30% of the population.
