EU must 'avoid a subsidy race', says German Finance Minister

Description

German Finance Minister Christian Lindner urges the European Union to "avoid a subsidy race we cannot avoid," warning that the bloc cannot simply follow United States economic policy moves. Speaking in Davos on the last day of the World Economic Forum, Lindner says the EU's "competitive disadvantage" to the US isn't subsidies, but its "private capitals market." SOUNDBITE
