All eyes are on Greece as it approaches its June 17 election, with the largest looming question being whether it will exit the euro.
“We really have to await the result of the elections six days from now in Greece to find out the answer to that, but I doubt it seriously,” Institute of International Finance Managing Director Charles Dallara said Monday on CNBC’s “The Kudlow Report.”
“Even the most radical leaders in Greece today do not speak of leaving the euro zone, and I think many northern European leaders who were earlier flirting with that idea as an attractive option, to be rid of the Greek problems, are now recognizing that Greece staying in the euro zone is the best prospect to at least to help stabilize Europe,” he added.
Although Greece exiting the euro zone was unlikely, Dallara said it would be bad news for everyone.
