David Cameron, the UK prime minister, has called on eurozone leaders to adopt a “big bazooka” approach to their woes. Barack Obama, US president, spoke to Nicolas Sarkozy, president of France, after the latter’s weekend meeting with Angela Merkel, Germany’s chancellor, to press for action. Herman Van Rompuy, the European Council president, has promised that leaders of the European Union would meet on October 23 to “finalise our comprehensive strategy”. That would allow the Europeans to present a plan for restoring confidence to the summit of the Group of 20 leading economies in November.
英国首相戴维•卡梅伦(David Cameron)呼吁欧元区领导人以一种强有力的方式来解决他们现在的危机。上周末,法国总统尼古拉•萨科齐(Nicolas Sarkozy)与德国总理安格拉•默克尔(Angela Merkel)进行了会谈,随后美国总统巴拉克•奥巴马(Barack Obama)致电萨科齐,敦促其采取行动。欧洲理事会(European Council)主席赫尔曼•范龙佩(Herman Van Rompuy)承诺,欧盟(EU)国家领导人将于10月23日举行会谈,以“敲定我们的全面战略”。由此,他们就能在11月举行的20国集团(G20)峰会上拿出一份重树信心的计划。
