This strategy’s success presupposes that, in the interim, economic growth will strengthen the capacity to repay debt down the line. The debt ratios for both Ireland and Portugal are expected to peak at about 120% of GDP in 2013, after which they are projected to fall.
该战略的成功有个前提：在此期间，经济增长能够提振债务偿付能力。据估计，爱尔兰和葡萄牙的债务比率将在2013年迎来高峰，达到GDP的120%，此后则会下降。峰值比率及其后的下降很大程度上取决于经济增长的速度。
