对于希腊新ZF欲结束纾困并与债权人敲定一项新融资协议的努力，德国总理安格拉•默克尔(Angela Merkel)泼了一盆冷水，称目前的方案是“我们之间任何讨论的基础”。

Ms Merkel, speaking in Washington, also said that what “counts” is the proposal “that Greece puts on the table” at an emergency meeting of eurozone finance ministers tomorrow.

默克尔在华盛顿表态时还称，“重要的是”明日欧元区财长紧急会议上“希腊提到桌面上的”方案。

Earlier in the day, Germany’s finance minister hinted that a Greek plan to leave the bailout at the end of the month could draw a harsh reaction from financial markets.

希腊及其债权人之间的对峙不断恶化，再次搅乱了金融市场，针对希腊债务违约的保险成本昨天涨至自2012年“Grexit”（希腊退出欧元区）担忧达到顶峰以来的最高水平。希腊3年期借贷成本涨至21%上方，也创下自2012年来的最高点，雅典股市下挫逾6%。

The worsening stand-off between Greece and its creditors is again unsettling financial markets, with the cost of insuring Greek debt against default jumping to its highest level yesterday since the height of “Grexit” fears in 2012. Greece’s three-year borrowing costs moved above 21 per cent, also the highest since 2012, and the Athens stock market fell more than 6 per cent.
