Obama pledges support to Spain amid euro zone's debt crisis![]() August 7, 2012 - 11:12 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - President Barack Obama on Monday, August 6 pledged U.S. support for Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy's efforts to get Spain's economy back on track while acknowledging that the country faced "difficult challenges" amid the euro zone's debt crisis, Reuters reported. The White House said the two men spoke by telephone as part of Obama's ongoing discussions with European leaders on the euro zone economy. Obama has voiced concern that economic "headwinds" from Europe could undermine the fragile U.S. economic recovery as he seeks re-election in November. Rajoy inched closer on Friday to asking for a European Union bailout for his country, but said he needed first to know what conditions would be attached and what form the rescue would take. ![]() ![]() Azerbaijani authorities report that they have already resettled 3,000 people in the Nagorno-Karabakh town of Stepanakert.
