IMF warns that Eurozone recession would slash China growth
A Eurozone recession could almost halve Chinese growth this year, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned.

However, a Eurozone recession could cut this to 4.2 per cent, it said.
The warning came as Greece was facing default if it failed to agrees a new package of stringent measures required by the EU today.
