GUARDIAN, UK.
Spain's economy shrank more than expected in the second quarter, unlike France and Germany which have seemingly climbed out of recession.
"Gross domestic product dropped 1% from the previous quarter, following a 1.9% slump in the first quarter, according to preliminary government figures. GDP was down 4.1% from a year ago, the sharpest annual decline since records began in 1977."
