Additional comments


Victory against inflation is in sight in Europe.


Inflation could be sustainably at 2% in early 2025.


Trump tariffs not expected to significantly alter inflation outlook in Europe.


Should continue to reduce degree of monetary policy restriction.


Pace of reduction must be determined by agile pragmatism.


We must maintain full optionality for upcoming meetings.
