巴西利亚/圣保罗11月5日电——财政副部长达里奥·杜里根于周四表示，巴西总统路易斯·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦预计将在本月晚些时候结束海外访问回国后，对潜在的财政措施做出决定，这表明任何提案都旨在加强现有的财政规则。
Brazil's Lula to decide on fiscal measures after foreign trips, finance minister says BRASILIA/SAO PAULO, Nov 5 - Brazil's reelected President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is expected to decide on potential fiscal measures later this month after an overseas trip, Finance Minister Dario Durigan said on Thursday, signaling that any proposals would aim to bolster existing fiscal rules.
“我们将继续进行讨论并提出建议，但当总统结束访问归来时，我们应该能掌握更多信息，”杜里根在谈到卢拉对土耳其和菲律宾的访问时说道，卢拉预计将在这些国家停留至11月15日。
"We will keep debating and bringing forward proposals, but when the president returns from his trip, we should have more information," Durigan said, referring to Lula's visits to Turkey and the Philippines, where he is scheduled to remain until November 15.
卢拉于周四召集了杜里根和其他高级官员，以讨论其政府的经济议程。杜里根在会后对记者表示，当局仍然专注于改善公共财政，使其符合2027年预算指导法案大纲中设定的目标。
Lula convened Durigan and other top officials on Thursday to discuss his government's economic agenda. Durigan told reporters after the meeting that authorities remain focused on improving public finances in line with targets outlined in the 2027 budget guidelines bill.
该计划预计，到2030年，实际基础财政盈余将达到国内生产总值的1.3%，而今年预计的财政赤字为国内生产总值的0.4%。
The plan envisages an effective primary surplus of 1.3% of gross domestic product by 2030, compared with a projected deficit of 0.4% of GDP this year.
然而，随着强制性支出不断增加，且卢拉面临兑现一系列昂贵竞选承诺的压力，政府几乎没有透露将如何实现这一财政好转。
However, the government has provided few details on how it intends to achieve that turnaround as mandatory spending rises and Lula faces pressure to deliver on a raft of costly campaign promises.
经济学家估计，需要达到国内生产总值2%至3%左右的基础财政盈余才能稳定巴西的债务轨迹，这突显了外界对政府财政计划充分性的种种疑问。
Economists estimate a primary surplus of around 2% to 3% of GDP would be needed to stabilize Brazil's debt trajectory, underscoring lingering questions about the adequacy of the government's fiscal plans.
“没有什么神奇的公式，而是一种继续改善公共账目的承诺，其重点是加强现有的财政规则，”杜里根说。
"There is no magic formula, but rather a commitment to continue improving public accounts, with a focus on strengthening the existing fiscal rules," said Durigan.
官员们希望缓解财政压力 杜里根表示，周四会议的与会者对财政诊断和前进道路基本达成共识，但并未讨论具体措施。
OFFICIALS LOOK TO EASE FISCAL PRESSURE Durigan said participants in Thursday's meeting broadly agreed on both the fiscal diagnosis and the path forward, but did not discuss specific measures.
出席会议的有被视为卢拉下一届政府财政部长人选的副总统杰拉尔多·阿尔克明，以及计划部长布鲁诺·莫雷蒂和巴西国家开发银行行长阿洛伊齐奥·梅尔卡丹特。
The meeting included Vice President Geraldo Alckmin, seen as a contender for the finance minister post in Lula's next administration, as well as Planning Minister Bruno Moretti and the president of Brazil's state development bank, Aloizio Mercadante.
前财政部长费尔南多·阿达和吉多·曼特加也出席了会议，两人都是卢拉所在的劳工党内具有影响力的人物。
Former Finance Ministers Fernando Haddad and Guido Mantega, both influential figures within Lula's Workers' Party, also attended, among others.
投资者一直在等待卢拉展现出更清晰的财政纪律信号，迅速上升的强制性支出引发了人们对债务可持续性的担忧，并推高了长期借款成本。
Investors have been waiting for clearer signs of fiscal discipline from Lula, with rapidly rising mandatory spending fueling concerns over debt sustainability and pushing up long-term borrowing costs.
反映这一动态的是，在卢拉目前的任期内，巴西的公共总债务已上升了10个百分点以上，达到国内生产总值的82.9%。
Reflecting this dynamic, Brazil's gross public debt has risen by more than 10 percentage points during Lula's current term, reaching 82.9% of GDP.
杜里根周四早些时候曾表示，当前的利率水平正在损害经济，政府必须采取必要措施，为借款成本以“可持续且结构性”的方式下降创造条件。
Durigan had said earlier on Thursday that the current level of interest rates is damaging the economy and that the government must take the necessary steps to create conditions for borrowing costs to fall in a "sustainable and structural" manner.
巴西央行于周三暂停了货币宽松周期，将基准的塞尔利克利率维持在13.75%不变，这是主要新兴经济体中最高的利率之一。
Brazil's central bank paused its monetary easing cycle on Wednesday, leaving the benchmark Selic rate unchanged at 13.75%, one of the highest among major emerging economies.
