Merkel: ECB would have to raise rates if looking at Germany only Apr 25th 2013, 09:06 DRESDEN, Germany, April 25 | Thu Apr 25, 2013 5:06am EDT DRESDEN, Germany, April 25 (Reuters) - The European Central Bank would have to raise interest rates if it were looking at Germany alone but it is in a difficult position because of the economic divergence in the currency bloc, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Thursday.
