'Eurozone must have option to expel member'
The 16-nation eurozone must have the option of expelling a member from the club if a country persistently breaks its rules, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said yesterday.
Hungarian central bank President Andras Simor told an audience at a conference in Alpbach, Austria, that avoiding euro adoption is ``not an option'' for the seven former communist European Union members that have yet to join the euro region.
