ECB interest rates could be raised or there could be a pause, President Christine @Lagarde tells Le Figaro. A pause, in September or later, would not necessarily be definitive. In this uncertain environment we will assess the situation meeting by meeting https://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/inter/date/2023/html/ecb.in230730~0503905cab.en.html
Il y aura peut-être une nouvelle hausse de taux ou une pause, dit Christine @Lagarde au Figaro. Une pause, en septembre ou plus tard, ne serait pas nécessairement définitive. Dans un climat incertain, nous réexaminerons la situation à chaque réunion https://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/inter/date/2023/html/ecb.in230730~0503905cab.fr.html
