    2‍. That’s not how you use € - it’s a unit of measurement. It belongs at the end like you would say it. That’s so American for something called france24

    According to the EU Interinstitutional Style Guide this is the correct way of doing it. http://publications.europa.eu/code/en/en-370303.htm#position

    The default is for English because the document is in English, if you switch to another language the order below is reversed.

    Position of the euro sign (€) in amounts

    The euro sign is followed by the amount without space:

    a sum of €30

    NB: The same rule applies in Dutch, Irish and Maltese. In all other official EU languages the order is reversed; the amount is followed by a hard space and the euro sign:

    une somme de 30 €
