David Cameron, the UK prime minister, has called on eurozone leaders to adopt a “big bazooka” approach to their woes. Barack Obama, US president, spoke to Nicolas Sarkozy, president of France, after the latter’s weekend meeting with Angela Merkel, Germany’s chancellor, to press for action. Herman Van Rompuy, the European Council president, has promised that leaders of the European Union would meet on October 23 to “finalise our comprehensive strategy”. That would allow the Europeans to present a plan for restoring confidence to the summit of the Group of 20 leading economies in November.
英國首相大衛•卡麥隆(David Cameron)呼籲歐元區領導人以一種強有力的方式來解決他們現在的危機。上週末，法國總統尼古拉•薩科吉(Nicolas Sarkozy)與德國總理安格拉•梅克爾(Angela Merkel)進行了會談，隨後美國總統巴拉克•歐巴馬(Barack Obama)致電薩科吉，敦促其採取行動。歐洲理事會(European Council)主席赫爾曼•範龍佩(Herman Van Rompuy)承諾，歐盟(EU)國家領導人將於10月23日舉行會談，以「敲定我們的全面戰略」。由此，他們就能在11月舉行的20國集團(G20)峯會上拿出一份重樹信心的計劃。
