(RTTNews) - The euro weakened against other major currencies in the Asian session on Wednesday.

The euro fell to a 5-day low of 1.1135 against the U.S. dollar and a 2-day low of 160.85 against the yen, from yesterday's closing quotes of 1.1184 and 160.99, respectively.

Against the pound and the Swiss franc, the euro slipped to nearly a 4-week low of 0.8420 and nearly a 3-week low of 0.9402 from Tuesday's closing quotes of 0.8432 and 0.9411, respectively.

Against Australia, the New Zealand and the Canadian dollars, the euro dropped to more than a 1-month low of 1.6408, nearly a 1-1/2-month low of 1.7856 and more than a 2-week low of 1.4996 from Tuesday's closing quotes of 1.6464, 1.7883 and 1.5031, respectively.
