LONDON (AP) — Further evidence emerged Friday to show that unemployment across the 18-country eurozone is falling on a consistent basis and that the region’s recovery is on a sounder footing.

Eurostat, the EU’s statistics office, said unemployment across the eurozone fell to 18.91 million in March from 18.94 million the month before. Though not a dramatic fall, it is a further improvement from last April’s peak of 19.24 million.
