The head of the New York Stock Exchange said on Wednesday he does not believe the European Union will force Greece to
abandon the euro amid the current debt crisis.
纽约证券交易所(New York Stock Exchange)负责人周三说,他认为欧盟(EU)不会强迫希腊在眼下债务危机时放弃欧元。
In the past two days, Greece has appeared to signal it would like to leave the euro, Duncan Niederauer, chief
executive of NYSE Euronext (NYX), said here at a
gathering of the Detroit Economic Club.
纽约泛欧交易所集团(NYSE Euronext)首席执行长尼德奥尔(Duncan Niederauer)在底特律经济俱乐部(Detroit Economic Club)于美国密歇根州伯明翰市举行的聚会上说,希腊在过去两天似乎放出了想要脱离欧元区的信号。
He added however, that he believes it is
extremelyunlikely other EU nations will force Greece out of the common currency.
不过,尼德奥尔还说,他认为其它欧盟国家迫使希腊脱离欧元区的可能性微乎其微。
'It's Greece
trying to exit themselves because they won't be asked to leave,' Mr. Niederauer said.
他说,是希腊自己试图要脱离欧元区,因为不会有人要求他们离开。
'This idea that other member states are going to kick somebody out--it has to be unanimous,' he said. 'It's simply not going to happen.'
尼德奥尔说,其它成员国要想把其中某个踢出去,必须获得一致通过,这是完全不可能发生的。
