FRANKFURT (Dow Jones)-German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said Wednesday that Europe needs to deal with the origin of the current crisis, namely unsustainable fiscal policy.
He also wouldn’t budge on his government’s position that common euro-zone bonds are not the solution to solving the euro zone’s debt crisis, saying this would reduce incentives for countries to make fiscal adjustments.
“The origin of the crisis must be removed,” he said.
Above all, Schaeuble said that Europe needed to “win back the trust of financial markets.”
