''EU faces 'lost generation' of almost 8 million young people''

From EU Observer

''Greece, Ireland and Portugal have joblessness rates of 22.4 percent, 14.9 percent and 15.7 percent respectively. Spain - considering whether to ask for a bailout - has the highest eurozone rate at 25.1 percent.
Among the under-25s, the figures are much more extreme. In this age-group, more than one in five are unemployed in Ireland and Portugal, while 53 percent of young Spaniards and 55 percent of young Greeks do not have a job.''
