Konjunktur in Germany/Merkel (13.12.2008) je 08 UTC

A few hours from now German Chancellor Angela Merkel will meet Germany's top banking and business leaders to discuss ways to tackle the effects of the financial crisis. Merkel has already drawn some criticism for her cautious approach, and reluctance to match the current flurry of billion-Euro rescue packages among European States. Today she will be facing the concerns back home, with some controversial options on the table.
