23.40 Alright folks, we’re wrapping up for the night, but you can keep up with the latest developments on FT.com. Here are some of our top stories from Monday:
- In Greece, Antonis Samaras’s victorious New Democracy party worked to stitch together a coalition government out of three disparate political parties joined only by their determination to stick with the euro.
- But for markets, the Greek honeymoon was shortlived, as Spain’s borrowing costs surged to a euro-era high.
- Political leaders gathered in Los Cabos, Mexico, for the Group of 20 summit, where Europeans came under pressure from the international community to resolve the crisis.
- FT investment editor James Mackintosh says that the Greek election results could allow eurozone leaders to keep dithering.
- But Lawrence Summers, former US Treasury secretary, warns a collapse of the currency union “would be a disaster that might define our era.”
- And Gideon Rachman argues the wrong steps to fix the crisis could be as damaging as the crisis itself.
