Eurozone finance ministers finalize rescue package

LUXEMBOURG- Finance ministers of eurozone countries agreed on Monday on final details of the 750-billion- euro (about $897 billion) rescue package designed to contain a spreading debt crisis.

"The facility has been just set up today in the form of a limited liability company in Luxembourg," Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker told reporters after chairing a eurozone finance ministers' meeting here on Monday.

The facility is the largest bulk of the 750-billion-euro rescue package agreed by EU finance ministers on May 10. Among the 750 billion euros, the European Commission would also raise 60 billion euros ($72 billion) and the International Monetary Fund would contribute about 250 billion euros ($299 billion).
