PARIS – After months of wrangling, the showdown between Greece and its European creditors has come down to a standoff over pensions and taxes. Greece is refusing to acquiesce to demands by its creditors that it cut payments to the elderly and raise the value-added tax on their medicine and electricity.
巴黎—在经历了几个月的争吵后，希腊及其欧洲债权人之间的摊牌最终可以归结为关于退休金和税收问题的僵局。希腊拒绝顺从债权人的要求——削减退休金、增加医药和电力行业的增值税。
