記者 Steve Evans 在11月22日從柏林發(fā)回的報(bào)道中說(shuō)，德國(guó)準(zhǔn)備實(shí)行統(tǒng)一最低工資標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。德國(guó)總理默克爾領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的聯(lián)盟黨正在和社民黨談判組建聯(lián)合政府，默克爾說(shuō)她愿意考慮在統(tǒng)一最低工資標(biāo)準(zhǔn)舉措上做出讓步。此舉受到眾多歐元區(qū)國(guó)家的歡迎。下面是這篇報(bào)道的全文：
Chancellor Merkel said she would accept the minimum wage but, in return, would not accede to Social Democrat calls for higher taxes.
The French finance minister welcomed the floor on German pay as a signal of what he saw as a more cooperative German attitude within overall European economic policy.
It is not clear, though, that a German minimum wage would transform the European economic situation. It all depends on what level it is set at, and there is great resistance in Germany to doing anything which would make German exports less attractive.
