Barroso: The economic governance package is a robust answer to what was a serious shortcoming in the design of the euro


Default: Change to:


欧州委員会のバローゾ委員長は、一連の経済ガバナンスに関する施策はEU(欧州連合)及びその加盟国にとって持続が不可能な債務の罠にはまることを防ぐこれまでにない強力なツールとなることを強調した。


Barroso stressed that the economic crisis presented two great challenges: how to mitigate its effects on individuals and businesses; and how to ensure that the EU will never find itself in such a dramatic situation again.

This agreement gives the EU and its Member States a powerful tool – one missing until now – to avoid falling into the trap of unsustainable debt. It will also, for the first time, allow us to anticipate the development of macro-economic imbalances that could pose a threat to the stability of the euro area. And while the emphasis will be on prevention, we will also have the capacity to take corrective action in a swifter and more decisive way than ever before, with greater automaticity in the application of sanctions.
