At the January meeting of the ECB’s Governing Council, for example, Trichet virtually pre-announced that European interest rates would be increased in March just before the April French elections. The ECB President made it clear he will do his duty whatever the political pressure.
比如在欧洲央行管理委员会的1月会议上，实际就在四月举行的法国大选前，特里谢提前宣布将于三月提高欧洲利率。欧洲央行行长明确表示：无论面临什么样的政治压力，他都决心完成自己的任务。
