“The last thing Europe needs now is an interest rate cut,” says one influential member of the ECB Governing Council in a candid assessment of the current situation. Capitulating to outside political pressure is no one’s definition of an “anchor of stability.” The euro would collapse, and the ECB finished as a creditable central bank.
“欧洲现在最不需要的就是降低利率，”一位颇具影响力的ECB监管理事会成员在一次对现行状况的公正评估中说道。屈服于外界的政治压力并不是“稳定后盾”的含义。欧元会崩溃，并且ECB将作为一家信誉良好的中央银行关门。
