德國議會批准新一輪希臘救助方案
BERLIN — Germany’s Parliament on Wednesday overwhelmingly approved a bailout of 86 billion euros, or $95 billion, for Greece, with Chancellor Angela Merkel and her finance minister failing to curb a revolt among their own conservative lawmakers who opposed more help for the heavily indebted government in Athens.
柏林——週三，德國聯邦議院以壓倒性的優勢，批准向希臘提供860億歐元，約合6120億元人民幣的救助。但德國總理安格拉·默克爾和德國財長，未能壓制他們領導的保守派政黨議員的反叛。這些議員反對向債臺高築的希臘政府提供更多幫助。
After just over two hours of debate, the 584 lawmakers at a special session of Parliament voted 453 to 113 for the package, with 18 abstentions. (Parliament officials had initially reported 454 votes in favor, and a total of 585 lawmakers present).
在進行了略長於兩小時的辯論後，584名議員在聯邦議院的特別會議上以453人贊成，113人反對，18人棄權的投票結果通過了該計劃。（議會官員起初公佈的結果是總計585名議員參與表決，454人贊成。）
Even taking into account that the session interrupted the summer recess, the number of lawmakers in the 631-seat legislature who stayed away, 47, was remarkably high, suggesting that at least some conservatives who opposed the package avoided the vote.
在設有631個席位的德國聯邦議院中，即便考慮到這次會議是在夏季休會期間舉行的，47人缺席這個數字也算非常高了。這表明，至少有一部分反對該計劃的保守派議員迴避了投票。
Last month, 60 of the 311 conservative lawmakers voted against even opening talks on what would be the third bailout for Greece since 2010, and five other conservatives abstained, a result that was seen as a political blow for the highly popular chancellor.
這將是2010年以來，爲希臘提供的第三輪援助。上月，在311名保守派議員中，有60人甚至投票反對就此事展開討論，另有五人棄權。這個結果被認爲是廣受歡迎的德國總理在政治上遇到的一次打擊。
