Franța ar susține un olandez la șefia BCE în locul lui Lagarde, dar vrea ceva la schimb

France supports Klaas Knot for the ECB presidency, contingent on a French candidate for chief economist. This proposal faces potential resistance from Germany, leading to high-stakes negotiations among Eurozone leaders. The race for succession has intensified amid speculation of early departures by current ECB officials. Knot, seen as a pragmatic candidate, may face competition from Spain's Pablo Hernández de Cos. France aims to secure the chief economist position, with candidates like Agnes Benassy-Quere and Laurence Boone in consideration. Germany's response remains cautious, as it seeks to maintain influence within the ECB amid concerns over France's debt issues.
