The European Union's top economic official says he expects eurozone finance
ministers to sign off on the payout of $17 billion in aid for Greece on Sunday
and decide on a new bailout in July. The news comes on the heels of the prime
minister of Greece reshuffling his Cabinet in an effort to push through a tough
austerity package that has many Greek citizens in uproar.
欧盟高级经济官员表示，他预期欧盟区的财政部长们将在星期天批准支付对希腊的170亿美元援助款，并且在7月就新的援助计划作出决定。此前，希腊总理重组内阁，希望借此通过一个艰难的紧缩计划，这个紧缩计划导致很多希腊人的骚动。
EU Economic Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn said Thursday the two-step
approach means that the funding of the Greek debt can now be ensured until
September, saving it from the immediate risk of default. But, he said, a
decision on a new longer-term bailout will be delayed until July amid
disagreement over the role of private investors.
欧盟经济事务专员奥利.雷恩星期四表示，这两个步骤意为着，现在能确保为希腊债务拨款到9月，以避免希腊无法支付立即需要的开支。但是奥利.雷恩说，由于私营部门对新的长期援助计划中的角色有分歧，因此将要拖到7月才能对这个计划作出决定。
Rehn said it was "regrettable" that the efforts to build national unity in
Greece failed Wednesday, but that he still expected parliament to pass new
austerity measures.
雷恩说，令人遗憾的是，希腊为建立国家团结的努力星期三遭到挫败，但是他仍然预期议会将通过新的紧缩措施。
On Wednesday, Greek citizens came out in the tens of thousands to protest
the measures that Prime Minister George Papandreou is determined to push through
parliament.
星期三，成千上万的希腊民众举行示威，反对总理帕潘德里欧决心要在议会获得通过的这个紧缩措施。
Papandreou responded by saying he will reshuffle his Cabinet and seek a
vote of confidence for his new government in parliament. Papandreou added he
will continue on what he called the "road of duty," together with his party
members, officials, and the Greek people.
帕潘德里欧回应说，他将重组内阁，并且要求议会对他的新政府进行信任投票。帕潘德里欧说，他会和他的政党成员，官员以及希腊人民，继续向他所说的[责任道路]上迈进。
His plan to reshuffle the Cabinet came on the same day that anti-austerity
riots hit Athens and coalition talks with the opposition failed.
帕潘德里欧计划重组内阁的同一天，雅典爆发了反对紧缩措施的骚乱，与反对派进行的联合政府会谈也宣告破裂。
Even some members of Papandreou's Socialist party are not behind his
measures. On Thursday, two lawmakers from his party stepped down.
甚至帕潘德里欧领导的社会党部分成员也不支持他的紧缩措施。星期四，两名社会党议员辞职。
In Greece, the reaction to Papandreou's policy was mixed. A recent poll
carried out by a market research company called Public Issue showed the main
opposition party is beating the ruling Pasok socialist party in voter
support.
在希腊，人们对帕潘德里欧的政策反应不一。一个叫做[公众议题]的市场研究公司最近所作的民调显示，主要的反对党比执政的泛希腊社会主义运动党获得更多的选民支持。 |
