LONDON -Buoyed by strengthening rebounds in Germany and France, the 16-nation euro zone has officially climbed out of its worst recession since World War II, fueling hopes that a lasting global recovery is beginning to take shape.
The data released Friday – showing modest 0.4 percent growth during the third quarter among the nations that use the euro, compared with a 0.2 percent contraction in the second quarter — comes after the United States and Japan have also officially emerged from recession.
