The country’s creditors, for their part, have an incentive to protect the euro and limit the geopolitical risk of a Greek exit from the eurozone. As a result, even when Greece fails to comply with its creditors’ demands – for, say, tax hikes or pension reforms – it continues to receive assistance with few penalties.
至于债权人，它们有激励捍卫欧元、遏制希腊退出欧元区的地缘政治风险。结果，即使当希腊无法满足债券人的条件——比如增税或退休金改革——它仍能获得援助而几乎不受惩罚。十分荒诞地，希腊经济表现越差，就能获得越多的援助。
