German Chancellor Angela Merkel signaled that policy makers may review Greece's second bailout after international debt inspectors rule on whether the country is meeting the terms of its current aid package.

Merkel said, according to a transcript provided by her press office late yesterday. "What we would like the most, of course, is that the numbers stay as we know them.
