LONDON – When Mario Draghi, the president of the European Central Bank, publicly proclaimed that the ECB would do “whatever it takes” to ensure the future stability of the euro, the effect of his remarks was immediate and remarkable. Borrowing costs fell dramatically for the governments of Italy and Spain; stock markets rallied; and the recent decline in the external value of the euro was suddenly checked.
伦敦—当欧洲央行行长德拉吉公开宣布欧洲央行将“竭尽全力”确保欧元未来稳定时，所引起的效果可谓立竿见影、引人注目。意大利和西班牙国债借贷成本大幅下降、股市反弹、欧元外部价值下降等结果接踵而至。
