Thus, Merkel has so far dampened any hope that the important and hard reforms that she announced during her campaign and that Germany urgently needs will be carried out under the CDU-SPD “grand coalition” government. To be sure, she has put healthcare reform and a reform of company taxation on the agenda, but the plans presented so far give no indication of a major breakthrough.
迄今为止，默克尔让所有希望她在选举期间所宣布的，德国迫切需要的至关重要而又大刀阔斧的改革会由她所谓的“大联盟”政府实施的人们感到沮丧。确切地说，她把医疗改革和公司税的改革列入议程，但到目前为止提出的实施计划却都没有任何的重大突破。
