Europe's Refugee Dilemma Eclipses Greek Crisis, Austria Says

The European Union's refugee emergency is a bigger threat than Greece, Austria's finance minister said, calling for the bloc's members to confront the issue with the same tenacity they showed when tackling the economic crisis. "This problem is a bigger problem than Greece, and it's a problem that will take much longer to solve," Austrian Finance Minister Hans Joerg Schelling said Tuesday at a conference sponsored by Euromoney in Vienna.
