It is in my opinion a mistake to force historical parallels onto this situation.

    And second, how can a euro zone that was created to drive integration and foster trust between its members thrive when it appears to have had precisely the opposite effect?

That trust was not first betrayed by the euro zone.

Ehhh yeah it kind of was. When you enter into these sort of agreements you lose autonomy. Period.
