法国财长：法国不是欧洲病人

Germany has barely hidden its suspicion that Mr Hollande is not doing enough to address its competitiveness problems and concerns are mounting among European policy makers that the financial markets could turn against France.

对于奥朗德是否正采取足够行动解决法国的竞争力问题，德国方面几乎公开表示怀疑，同时欧洲各国政策制定者越来越担心，金融市场可能把矛头对准法国。

The French government was lifted yesterday by official data showing its economy had eked out growth of 0.2 per cent in the third quarter, against expectations of flat or negative growth.

昨日公布的官方数据令法国政府感到振奋。第三季度法国经济增长率勉强达到0.2%，而市场预期则为持平或负增长。

But gross domestic product in the eurozone as a whole fell back into recession for the first time in three years, shrinking 0.1 per cent in June to September as Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Austria and the Netherlands contracted sharply, according to the EU’s statistics office. Prime minister Jean-Marc Ayrault visited Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin yesterday to rebut German government worries. “Our goal is to return to growth,’’ Mr Ayrault said. “France has its own history and my challenge is to reform what is not working and correct what is weak, while retaining our core values.

但来自欧盟统计局的数据显示，第三季度欧元区整体经济三年来首次重新陷入衰退，GDP增速仅为-0.1%，希腊、意大利、西班牙、葡萄牙、奥地利以及荷兰经济显著收缩。法国总理让-马克·埃罗(Jean-Marc Ayrault)昨日在柏林会晤德国总理安格拉·默克尔(Angela Merkel)，以求打消德国政府顾虑。埃罗指出：“法国的目标是实现经济重新增长。法国有自己的历史，而我所面临的挑战就是改革和纠正不管用或者薄弱的地方，同时保持我们的核心价值。
