UPDATE 2-Sarkozy, Monti urge unity over euro crisis

<...>

Monti told an international financial conference that European institutions must build up sufficient means to dispel any doubts among investors over the solidity of the euro.

Sarkozy went even further, saying that a collapse of the euro zone common currency could endanger peace in Europe.

"We do not have the right to drop Europe, we do not have the right to let the euro be destroyed. The euro is the heart of Europe. If the euro is destroyed, it's the whole of Europe that goes up in smoke," Sarkozy said, following talks with Monti at his presidential palace.

"If Europe goes up in smoke it's the peace of our continent that will be one day or another be called into question."
