Meet Yannis Stournaras, the guy with the toughest job in the world. 让我们来认识一下扬尼斯•斯托纳拉斯(Yannis Stournaras)。他的工作是世界上最艰难的。 The 55-year old economist has just been named as Greece's new finance minister and will lead the country's negotiations with its European partners to ease the austerity program that comes with Greece's latest 173 billion bailout. EPA扬尼斯•斯托纳拉斯(Yannis Stournaras)这位55岁的经济学家刚刚被任命为希腊新财长，他将率队参加希腊与其欧洲伙伴关于放松最新1,730亿欧元援助方案附带紧缩条件的谈判。 Given the sentiment in the rest of Europe - already fed up with Greece's chronic foot-dragging and missed targets - this won't be an easy task. 考虑到欧洲其他国家的气氛，这不会是一件容易的任务。这些国家已经受够了希腊长期以来拖拖拉拉、达不到既定目标的做法。 But Mr. Stournaras, a widely-respected technocrat who has been in and out of government for more than a decade, may have one advantage: he's no politician. Instead, he is a plainly-spoken ambassador of common sense, known for his liberal critiques of Greece's overregulated economy. 但10余年间断断续续担任公职、备受尊敬的专家型官员斯托纳拉斯或许拥有一个优势：他不是政客。相反，他说话从不拐弯抹角，讲的都是常理，并以不吝批评希腊经济监管过度而闻名。 |
