A case of life imitating art or a seminal shift in global power? The idea of a Brics development bank may be both. Few can have expected the Bric acronym – initially put forward in 2001 as an investment -concept – to have inspired real-world alliances.
这是生活模仿艺术,还是全球实力大转移的一个例证?这两种说法对于“设立金砖国家(Brics)开发银行都适用。很少有人能够预料到,Bric这个首字母缩写词能推动金砖国家建立真正的同盟关系。Bric在2001年问世时不过是一种投资理念而已。
But Brazil, Russia, India and China, recently joined by South Africa, are increasingly adding diplomatic ambitions to their economic assertiveness.
但巴西、俄罗斯、印度和中国(不久前又增加了南非)除上在经济上表现出自信之外,也日益展现出外交雄心。
Once an outlandish possibility, the proposed Brics development bank was first discussed at a meeting of the five countries in March.
虽然设立金砖国家开发银行的设想一度显得颇为怪异,但金砖五国在今年3月的一次会议上第一次讨论了这个设想。
If it becomes a reality, the institution would be the first major multilateral lender to emerge since the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development in 1991.
如果这一设想变为现实,金砖国家开发银行将成为1991年欧洲复兴开发银行(EBRD)成立以来设立的第一家重要多边贷款机构。
