After the end of the meeting of the European Central Bank, at which it was decided not to change the rates, the bank held a press conference. Mario Draghi gave a speech. In it, he noted that despite the recent challenges, the eurozone economy has been growing steadily. Inflation is approaching its target level. The economy will remain strong even after the asset purchases are stopped.Mario Draghi noted that in order to maintain domestic price pressure, it is necessary to maintain MP incentives. The European Central Bank is ready, if necessary, to change its policy in order to achieve sustainable growth in consumer prices. The head of the European Central Bank said that the euro zone needs reforms. Their implementation will ensure sustainable economic growth and a reduction in unemployment.Mario Draghi also touched on the issue of state fees. In his opinion, so far they have only a very limited impact on the economy of the euro zone. However, the consequences of a full-scale trade “war” can be very serious. The beginning of negotiations between the European Union and the United States allows us to count on peaceful resolution of all trade issues.Mario Draghi also said that the ECB DPK is based on perseverance, prudence and patience. According to the bank’s forecast, the rates will remain the same for at least a year.
