Tariffs and threats of counter-measures make it next to impossible to predict if inflation in the 20-nation euro zone will continue to approach the ECB’s 2% target as planned, Holzmann said in an interview in Vienna. A pause in April is therefore policymakers’ best choice and preferable to rushing into action.
