The U.S. bid to postpone discussion over Wolfowitz “for another day ran into immediate opposition from European and other governments determined to resolve the bank crisis once and for all this week. … The Group of Seven leading industrialised nations failed to agree a way forward, as European nations and Canada pushed back against US pressure to delay consideration of whether Paul Wolfowitz can any longer be effective in his job.”
