PARIS--German Chancellor Angela Merkel will meet Peugeot SA
(UG.FR) Chief Executive Carlos Tavares, a Peugeot spokeswoman said
Wednesday.
No date has been set for the meeting during which the two will

"Both Ms. Merkel and Mr. Tavares have busy schedules but they
have agreed to meet," a Peugeot spokeswoman said.
She said that Mr. Tavares was also keen to meet the unions
representing Opel workers who Tuesday expressed concern about the
deal.
