Reading Christine Lagarde's interview in Kathimerini, I noted the following:

First, that she is not concerned about the political consequences of the central bank's efforts, which have been criticized by some European governments that worry higher interest rates will stifle growth. In fact, she bases this optimism on invoking our "mandate to ensure price stability. And this is the best contribution we can make to social peace and society, especially for the most vulnerable members of it."

However, I will note that the recession or slowdown in growth does affect the vulnerable members of society. Even more so when,

Secondly, the forecasts of the head of the ECB are that inflation will reach 2% in 2025.

Thirdly, regarding our country, Mrs. Lagarde praised Greece, commending the efforts that have been made in recent years. "The key performance indicators for the economic and financial situation of Greece have shown improvements overall. I understand that there are more reforms on the horizon, but overall, the results of the country's efforts are impressive."

Simple as that.
