Slovak Premier Robert Fico said the euro area may break up and lose one or two members, Sme reported on its website.

Fico, in a debate on TV Markiza, said he sees a 50 percent chance the bloc will remain intact, according to Sme. Greece currently doesn’t meet its bailout commitments and if that continues it should leave the common currency, Fico was cited by Sme as saying.
