Governance of the ECB: Past, Present and Future
Mr. Jean-Claude Trichet:
Again, I was myself not in touch with the IMF, it was my collaborators. So, I don't think, again, that in '10 there was, at least I have not in mind the fact that there was not a broad consensus that burden sharing was unwise. Perhaps a collaborator of the IMF thought otherwise, certainly not the IMF, certainly not the board of directors of the IMF, certainly not the MD of the IMF. I cannot discuss with individuals, you know/ You are asking the question, perhaps you could give me the name of the individual who said to you that, that would help.
