Euro slides on French no vote

The euro continued its slide on Tuesday on the consequences of France’s rejection of the European Union constitution.

One of those consequences was the naming of a new French prime minister, Dominique de Villepin.

Villepin, a less-than-popular choice, is seen as against economic reform and has a reputation as being “confrontational”. In addition, he is an opponent of the Iraq war.
