Germany and France are finalizing an agreement on the ECB with Hernández de Cos as the favorite for the presidency

El Pais reporta que Alemania y Francia están ultimando un pacto sobre el Banco Central Europeo (BCE), con Pablo Hernández de Cos siendo el favorito para ocupar la presidencia. El canciller alemán, Friedrich Merz, confirmó esto tras reunirse con el presidente francés, Emmanuel Macron, en Dublín, donde participó en el Consejo Europeo informal.

Merz señaló que se han establecido acuerdos en perspectiva, pero que aún no han sido cerrados, y que antes de presentar la propuesta alemana la semana que viene, Alemania necesita consensuar el acuerdo dentro de su propio partido socialdemócrata.
