欧洲央行管理委员会成员普里莫兹·多伦茨指出，欧洲央行能够阻止能源价格飙升对整体经济产生负面影响。
The European Central Bank can stop the energy-price spikes from affecting the broader economy, according to Governing Council member Primoz Dolenc.
周四，他在斯洛文尼亚的波尔托罗日表示：“货币政策无法直接左右能源危机、地缘政治紧张局势或结构性竞争力问题的发展走向。但我们能够防止初期的物价波动演变为更广泛且长期的通胀趋势。”目前，欧洲央行已两次加息，预计12月的会议上还将继续加息。9月份的通胀率升至3.8%，几乎是央行设定的通胀目标值的两倍。
“Monetary policy cannot directly influence the evolution of energy shocks, geopolitical tensions, or structural competitiveness issues,” he said in Portoroz, Slovenia on Thursday. “What we can do is prevent initial price shocks from spilling over into broader and more persistent inflationary dynamics.”The ECB has hiked interest rates twice and is expected to do so again, most probably at its December meeting. Inflation hit 3.8% in September, almost twice the central bank’s price goal.
多伦茨称：“我们预计今年年底之前通胀率仍将维持在3%左右的高位。只要不出现新的冲击因素，未来两年通胀率有望逐步回落至2%的目标水平，同期经济增长速度也将有所加快。”
“We expect elevated inflation of around 3% to persist through the end of this year,” Dolenc said. “Over the next two years, barring new shocks, we anticipate a gradual return of inflation toward the 2% target, while economic growth is expected to accelerate during the same period.”
