    Is 2013 far enough for PIIGS? 😉

    Germany’s Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble Wednesday reaffirmed that Germany will oppose any attempt to prolong the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) beyond 2013.

    “Anyone who believes that the EFSF will be prolonged beyond three years is putting our trustworthiness at risk,” Schaeuble said in a speech here. “We cannot do that.”

    Rather, the time between now and 2013 needs to be used “to create better solutions for the euro,” the Minister said. “Otherwise, it will be difficult to defend the stability of the euro,” he warned.
