Malpass said the deterioration is due to a combination of the destruction of jobs during the pandemic as well as supply issues that make access to food more difficult.
马尔帕斯说,情况恶化是由于疫情期间就业岗位减少以及供应问题使人们更难获得食物。
“All of this contributes to pushing people back into extreme poverty the longer the economic crisis persists.”
“这一切将导致经济危机持续时间越长,就有越多的人重新陷入极端贫困。”
Newly-installed World Bank Chief Economist Carmen Reinhart has called the economic crisis a “pandemic depression,” but Malpass was less concerned with terminology.
新任世界银行首席经济学家卡门·赖因哈特将这场经济危机称为“疫情大萧条”,但马尔帕斯并不那么在意术语说法。
“We can start calling it a depression. Our focus is on how do we help countries be resilient in working out on the other side.”
他说:“我们可以开始称之为萧条。我们的重点在于在另一方面,如何帮助各国恢复发展。”
Having a clear view of the size of each country’s debt and the collateral involved also are key to being able to help the debtor nations, Malpass said.
马尔帕斯说,清楚地了解每个国家的债务规模和涉及的担保品也是帮助债务国的关键。
collateral[kəˈlætərəl]:抵押品,担保品
