Asylum
Hi,
"Speaking to reporters in Tokyo yesterday, Ms Lagarde had high praise for Mr Monti, saying she had great esteem for the "quality" economist with whom she had long enjoyed an "extremely warm" and effective relationship. The technocrats are now even more in charge of the asylum that is eurozone finances." [From The Independent.]
Are the "eurozone finances" compared to the "asylum" in the sentence "The technocrats are now even more in charge of the asylum that is eurozone finances."?
Thank you.
