Merkel must now determine how to forge a compromise that does not discredit the Europe-wide democratic process, which currently has more support in Germany than in any other large European country. To this end, support from Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi – whose party won 41% of his country’s vote, arguably making him the only real winner at the national level – could help.
现在，默克尔必须决定如何制造一个妥协不令泛欧洲民主进程失去信誉。目前，欧洲民主进程在德国所获得的支持多于任何一个其他欧洲大国。在这方面，来自意大利总理伦齐的支持——他的政党在意大利获得了41%的选票，这意味着他很有可能是硕果仅存的货真价实的国家层面赢家——是大有裨益的。
