“If our inflation projections are true, the evolution (of monetary policy) will continue the trend (of rate cuts) that we have had in recent months,” he said.

Last week, the ECB cut interest rates for the fourth time this year, keeping the door open to further easing as the eurozone economy is dragged down by domestic political instability and the threat of a new trade war with the United States. .
