Euro zone finance ministers have granted Greece a conditional 4-month extension of its international bailout. Speaking after crisis talks in Brussels, the president of the Euro group Jeroen Dijsselbloem said Greece had pledged to honor all its debts in a timely manner and not to pursue any unilateral matters that might affect the budget targets. Lucy Williamson has more.
歐元區(qū)財政部長表示就希臘的國際援助項(xiàng)目提供了4個月的延期,但這一延期是有條件的。該歐元組織主席Jeroen Dijsselbloem在布魯塞爾危機(jī)會談后發(fā)表講話說,希臘承諾及時兌現(xiàn)全部債務(wù),不會采取任何可能影響預(yù)算目標(biāo)的單邊事務(wù)。下面是本臺記者發(fā)回的報道。
This is a very complicated arrangement. The 4-month deal were shorter than the Greeks had asked for. They had asked for 6 months so there was compromise there and also it’s not been rubber stamped yet. We were told today that the Greek government would have to provide a list of reforms by Monday for the institutions of the member countries to have a look at. And if all is well if they are happy with that list of performs then it gets rubber stamped and sent to the Natioanal Parliament all before of course the end of the week when that existing agreement would finish.
這一工作程序復(fù)雜,四個月的協(xié)議時間比希臘希望的要短,希臘原本希望是6個月,所以希臘方面是做出了妥協(xié),且尚未進(jìn)行蓋章批準(zhǔn)。我們今天得知希臘政府將必須在周一之前交出改革清單,以供會員國各機(jī)構(gòu)審閱。如果一切順利,且各機(jī)構(gòu)對改革清單感到滿意,那么就會得到批準(zhǔn),并在本周末之前交給國民議會,本周末就是現(xiàn)有協(xié)議的到期時間。
The Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis said the deal had proved his government was right to resist austerity. "We averted the view that the country that is heavily indebted ending the program can not possibly claim that elections can change something. We stood upright from the beginning of negotiations to the very end."
希臘財長雅尼斯瓦魯法克斯說,該協(xié)議表明本國政府抵制緊縮政策的做法是正確的。“我們扭轉(zhuǎn)了這樣的觀點(diǎn),即一個結(jié)束緊縮項(xiàng)目的負(fù)債累累的國家是無法宣稱靠選舉來改變國家的,我們從協(xié)商的開始到最后都堅(jiān)信這點(diǎn)。”
