The rise reported Wednesday by Eurostat, the EU's statistics office, from the previous quarter's 88.2 percent provides further evidence that stalling economic growth is making it harder for eurozone countries to handle their debts.
The debt problems are getting worse for many euro countries, including Italy, Spain, Ireland and Portugal.
Greece saw the biggest quarterly increase in its debt burden to 150.3 percent of its national income from 136.9 percent. The country's deep recession, which appears headed for a sixth year, is making the debt mountain more burdensome.
