欧盟领导人已经达成一项协议,利用欧盟永久救助基金直接为欧洲挣扎中的银行提供支持,并寻求建立更紧密的长期预算及政治同盟。

星期五上午,欧盟领导人在布鲁塞尔举行的峰会上经过数小时讨论后做出了这项决定。协议还决定为使用欧元的17国集团成立一个联合金融监管机构,并容许使用救助基金购买处于困境的借贷国家的债券。欧盟领导人最后还决定满足西班牙和意大利的要求,帮助降低其借贷成本。


欧洲理事会主席范龙佩在会后举行的记者会中对这项协议表示赞扬。

Leaders of the European Union have reached an agreement to use its permanent rescue fund to directly boost struggling banks across the continent, and to seek a tighter long-term budgetary and political union.  

The decision was reached early Friday morning after hours of discussions at the EU summit in Brussels.  The agreement also establishes a joint banking supervisory body for the 17-nation bloc that uses the euro currency, and allows the rescue fund to buy the bonds of distressed sovereign borrowers. The last part was reached to satisfy the demands of Spain and Italy, who wanted help to ease their rising borrowing costs.

European Council President Herman van Rompuy hailed the agreement during a press briefing after the meeting.
