Germany says does not expect problems with Opel sale

BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany does not expect concerns at the European Commission in Brussels to lead to any serious problems with the planned sale of Opel by parent General Motors .

"We do not expect this to lead to fundamental problems," a spokesman for the German Economy Ministry said on Monday.

European Competition Commissioner Neelie Kroes raised concerns in a letter to the German government last week about German government aid that is to be provided to Opel under a planned sale of the carmaker to Canada's Magna .
