Specially naming out Italy and Spain, the European Central Bank governor urged all eurozone governments, 17 of them, to accelerate implementing the decision reached on July 21 and warned if no important actions are carried out, Europe would face the most serious crisis since World War I.

Following a mixed Monday market, the Tuesday indexes remained shaky as French shares CAC 40 fell by 4.36 percent and once broke the 3000-point threshold around 10:30 a.m. Paris time.
