Germany finance minister Schaeuble: We are planning zero new debt for 2015; the economy is doing well - Rheinische Post - German government and EU Commission forecast for German 2014 GDP at around 1.7% "is on the cautious side." - 2013 debt level will come in below €25.1B even after the extra funding for flood relief in the eastern part of the country. - In 2014, the German deficit will narrow and its structural budget will be balanced. - Greece has made clear progress, much more than many people thought the country could make. If Greece meets all of its obligations by the end of 2015, achieving a primary budget surplus, and still needs financial help, we would be willing to do something.
