BERLIN – The eurozone is at the center of the global financial crisis, because only there, in the realm of the second most important currency after the dollar, does the crisis hit a weak “structure” rather than a state with real power. It is a structure that is squandering the trust of citizens and markets in its ability to resolve conflicts – while pushing the international financial system to the brink of disaster.
柏林——欧元区已成为全球金融危机的中心，因为在欧元区——仅次于美元的第二大货币使用区——危机击中的是软弱的“结构”而不是拥有真实力量的国家。这一结构挥霍公民和市场对其解决冲突的能力的信任，还把国际金融体系推向了灾难边缘。
