BRUSSELS – European policymakers have decided that they must be seen to be “doing something” about youth unemployment. A special summit of Europe’s heads of state has been called, and a “Youth Employment Initiative,” proposed at the EU Council of Ministers’ meeting in February, aims to “reinforce and accelerate” measures that were recommended in a “Youth Employment Package” in December 2012.
布鲁塞尔—欧洲决策者决定他们必须让世人看到在为年轻人失业问题“做些什么”。今年2月，欧洲各国首脑举行了一次名为“年轻人就业计划”（“Youth Employment Initiative”）的特别峰会，这次峰会由欧洲部长理事会发起，旨在“增强和加快”2012年12月“年轻人就业方案”（“Youth Employment Package”）中所建议的措施。
