MADRID, Dec 2 (Reuters) - European Union leaders could hold a summit in the near future to show unity in the face of intense market pressure on the euro zone, a Spanish government source said on Thursday.
EU leaders are talking about a meeting and looking at schedules, but a decision on whether to go ahead rests on the outcome of Thursday's European Central Bank (ECB) meeting [ID:nLDE6B10EI], the source told Reuters.
"If the signal from the ECB was insufficient, the need for a meeting of leaders rises. The outcome of the ECB meeting can change things," the source said.
There were differing views among European countries on whether a summit was needed, he added. (Reporting by Fiona Ortiz; editing by Alexander Smith)
