Sharon Bowles MEP: European leaders are on borrowed time to save the euro


Default: Change to:


本日ブリュッセルで開かれたAFME(欧州金融市場協会)の第6回政府債券会議において講演したシャロン・ボウルズ議員は、来週の欧州理事会に出席する予定の欧州各国首脳に対して、会議のこの上ない重要性について厳重な警告を発した。


Ms Bowles also warned that, now more than ever, Europe was in need of enterprising and comprehensive measures to stave of the crisis and restore confidence to the markets.

She said: "European leaders are working on borrowed time to come up with viable solutions. They have to sort out a plan for Greece, recapitalise banks, and work out how to get more bang for their buck out of the European Financial Stability Facility.

"Two out of three of these will not be good enough if they want to create a credible framework to solve the euro crisis and reinstall confidence in the markets.

"The stakes have never been higher so if European leaders really are committed to doing everything it takes to save the euro they must pull out all the stops.

"There is no time for half measures. Leaders have to be enterprising - for example they could lower the rating on the European Financial Stability Facility."
