"After verifying that it this time is not accidental, I regret the inconsistent decision earlier today by Standard and Poor's concerning the rating of several euro area Member States, at a time when the euro area has taken decisive action in all fronts of its crisis response. These initiatives push forward the necessary fiscal consolidation and structural reform in our Member States, address the fragilities of the banking sector, reinforce our financial backstops and strengthen our economic governance. The recent EU decisions, combined with action by the ECB, have been instrumental in easing tensions in sovereign bonds markets."
