歐洲央行行長拉加德：基於不確定性，整體通脹未發生變化，管委會一致決定維持利率不變。

France's finance minister said on Thursday Europe will release 42 mln barrels of oil into markets over the next three months to help curb energy prices, with roughly half the volume in diesel. He said 10 mln barrels of diesel that France announced last month will hit markets within days, with price effects possible as soon as next week; the supply will be sold at cost and is expected to lower diesel by about 12–18 euro cents per litre. The G7 agreed last month to release up to 100 mln barrels; under IEA coordination 400 mln barrels were released in March. He said diesel is "at the core of the challenge" and Europe retains the option to release further strategic reserves.
