Concerning external demand, intra-European help in the form of reflationary policies in stronger economies is unlikely to prove sufficient, owing primarily to the fiscal and political conditions prevailing in Germany. Implementing a Marshall Plan-type initiative by mobilizing EU budget resources and additional lending by the European Investment Bank to finance investments in weaker countries could be an alternative, but it lacks political support.
在外部需求问题上，坚挺国实施再通胀政策的欧洲内部援助不可能充分，其主要原因在于德国国内的财政和政治条件。通过动员欧盟预算资源并增加欧洲投资银行向疲软国金融投资项目的贷款等形式实施的欧洲内部版马歇尔计划可以成为替代方案，但缺少政治支持。
