The magazine "The Economist" reported that the European economy has suffered a triple blow, affecting its performance and resulting in modest performance this decade compared to the American economy. The economic magazine stated that Europe is in urgent need of achieving economic growth to cover additional spending, at a time when current European governments are increasingly losing voter support. Notably, "The Economist" included a caricature of the famous painting "Mona Lisa," depicting the lady in a state of "fear and astonishment" to emphasize the seriousness of the issue and attract attention.
