    New EU fiscal rules to narrow Germany's fiscal room, finance ministry says

    New European Union rules further restrict Germany's fiscal space for its budgets, requiring stricter adjustments than under national regulations, the finance ministry said on Wednesday. Germany has received an adjustment path for the next four year from the European Commission, which serves as the basis for the discussions that will follow later in the year.
