French President François Hollande has already given a rather successful preview of this role, meeting German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin on his first day in office, and, a month later, participating in a high-profile meeting with the Italian and Spanish prime ministers in Rome. Indeed, he took the lead in adding a “growth pact” to the “stability pact” that had been negotiated under Merkel’s leadership.
法国总统奥朗德已经成功地给出了这一角色的预览，一上任，他就在柏林会见了德国总理默克尔；一个月以后，他又赴罗马参加了与意大利总理和西班牙首相的高规格会面。事实上，是他牵头要求在以默克尔主导的“稳定契约”谈判中加入“增长契约”内容。
