Panelists talked about the debt crises in Greece and Puerto Ricoand the
effects they could have on the Eurozone and the U.S. economies. Though
the countries face similar economic challenges, the panelists noted how
Greece’s position as a sovereign state and Puerto Rico’s position as a
U.S. territory would affect their outcomes. Financial consultant Bert
Ely predicted that Greece would leave the Eurozone and eventually be
forced to leave the European Union. Panelists agreed that Congress needs
to take a more active role in finding a solution for Puerto Rico’s
crisis
“A Tale of Two Debt Crises: Is Puerto Rico America’s Greece?” was held at the American Enterprise Institute.
