German Chancellor Angela
Merkel on Tuesday called for European countries to all respect
budget rules, or risk raising doubts about the stability of the
region. Merkel's comments to her political party's congress came
at the same time as meetings of European finance ministers to
discuss budget issues including debt and deficit limits. "If in
the end, we do not respect (rules) we decided on...it will
provoke doubts and this will be negative for Europe," said
Merkel. "This is the reason why we want the rules respected".
