There is one bright spot: Ireland, which is set to recover from an exceptionally severe financial crisis. But there is also a dark spot: Greece, where GDP has shrunk by 20% since 2009 and where the public debt/GDP ratio is now higher than anticipated at the launch of the program, despite the debt reduction negotiated with private creditors in February 2012.
三年后，结果只能说是喜忧参半。失业远比预期增长得快，社会困境也显而易见。爱尔兰是一个亮点，它即将从极其严重的金融危机中复苏。但有两点也有暗点：希腊GDP自2009年以来下降了20%，如今公债/GDP比率仍比援助计划开始时预计的高，尽管2012年2月与私人债权人进行了债务削减谈判。这并不是因为缺少财政整合导致的。相反，希腊当局在这方面比计划的做得更加充分。但GDP的暴跌免不了会导致债务比率上升，将希腊拖入衰退螺旋——经济收缩破事支出进一步缩减。
