EU commissioner: Belgium could become the next Greece

Belgian EU Commissioner Karel De Gucht warned on Belgian TV on the 13 November 2011 that Belgium could be in line to suffer a Greek-and-Italian-type loss of market confidence if it does not quickly form a new government. Belgium had been without a government since a general election in June 2010.
