Schaeuble Says Portugal May Still Face Problems After Program

German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said Portugal may still face “problems” after its bailout program ends next year, suggesting the country may require more assistance from international creditors.

Speaking at an election rally of his Christian Democratic Union in the city of Moenchengladbach today, Schaeuble said while countries including Greece aren’t out of the woods yet, there’s growing consensus in the euro region that the 17 countries sharing the currency have the worst behind them.
