| ---------------------------------------- Economy/Business News Alert: Slovakia's Parliament rejects expansion of euro currency zone's bailout fund October 11, 2011 4:47:18 PM ---------------------------------------- Slovakian lawmakers on Tuesday rejected the expansion of the euro currency zone's bailout fund. After 10 hours of debate in parliament, the measure failed to pass by 21 votes. Slovakia remains the only country in the 17-member eurozone that has not approved expanding the bailout fund, which requires unanimous support to go into effect. The package of measures is designed to boost Europe's firefighting capabilities in the region's financial crisis. Slovakia's 1-year-old coalition government also fell with the vote because it included a no-confience measure. http://link.email.washingtonpost.com/r/YLCS8G/OJB8HV/Z2YDT0/BBOXJW/761IV/UP/h For more information, visit PostBusiness.com ---------------------------------------- Get The Washington Post app for iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch: http://itunes.com/apps/thewashingtonpost ---------------------------------------- Get breaking news alerts sent to your mobile phone.
