By Jesse WietenTHE HAGUE, Jan. 22 (Xinhua) -- The appointment of Jeroen Dijsselbloem as president of the Eurogroup seemed unrealistic a few months ago, even in his own country.

Quotes

..."That money will be lost to the EU," said Dijsselbloem. "There is no space to change the decision. We also benefited sometimes from EU budget changes in recent years and now we don't."
...But the Minister has "no concrete evidence that there is an approach [by the Indian government] focused on the functioning of women's organizations as such."
...the leftist-liberal party in the coalition government, this week announced its opposition to this type of exploration after pressure from voters. "The civil rights organisation AfriForum is not surprised that parties and organisations in Shell's home country are objecting to the company's operations. Mining for shale gas is a controversial issue, due to the risk of environmental pollution and the possible contamination of ground water" said Julius Kleynhans, Head of Environmental Affairs at AfriForum
"The council contained many members who were scarcely open to discussion," De Gruyter added. "Dijsselbloem was not like that. This indicated he was a strong person. As one of the few he was different. His approach was fresh, clear, positive and friendly, but not soft. He knew what he wanted."
