Whatever Schäuble’s reasons, his proposal could have represented a way out for Greece, whose economy had been squeezed dry by austerity and whose banking system was already closed. Immediate debt reduction and the recovery of economic sovereignty – even at the expense of exiting the euro, at least temporarily – would seem to have offered significant long-term benefits.
不管朔伊布勒的理由为何，他的方案代表了希腊的一条出路。希腊经济已经被紧缩榨干，其银行体系也已经关门。立刻获得债务减免和重获经济主权——即使以至少是暂时性地退出欧元区为代价——似乎提供了巨大的长期好处。从某种程度上讲，这是一个黄金机会，德国提出为某些许多人认为希腊无论如何应该做的事买单。
