G20 finance chiefs to discuss Europe's 'comprehensive plan'

"The consequences of delay are growing and calls for solutions are growing," Brainard said in a briefing with reporters ahead of a G20 ministerial meeting in Paris on Friday.

In addition, she said Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and other G20 officials will continue to press China to move toward a more flexible exchange rate for its currency, the yuan.

The United States is eager to hear details about the "comprehensive plan" European leaders have been working on to address long-standing government debt and banking problems, according to Brainard.

European Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso announced a five-point plan Wednesday to address Europe's problems, saying leaders should agree on the plan at a meeting of the European Council on Oct. 23.

Brainard said G20 ministers, including Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, expect to have "robust discussion" about the details of the plan.

"The world wants to come together around Europe's plan," she said. "The first step will be to have the comprehensive plan on the table and mobilize the resources that are available. And then we'll all be in a better position to ensure that we have the resources we need in international system."
