NEW DELHI – German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s second visit to China in a year comes against the backdrop of dire forecasts of a difficult September for the eurozone. Mindful of such concerns and persistent pessimism in global financial markets, Merkel is now taking bold political initiatives at home and overseas.
新德里—在人们忧心冲冲地预计欧元区将迎来艰难九月之际，德国总理默克尔将在一年内第二次访问中国。默克尔对这一担忧以及金融市场的持久悲观心知肚明，她正在国内外推出一系列大手笔政治计划。事实上，她的中国之旅应该被视为宣示欧元区领导人地位之举。
