FRANKFURT (Reuters) – The euro zone’s economic recovery has simply been delayed, not delayed by fresh anti-pandemic restrictions and uncertainty surrounding vaccinations, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said on Monday.

“The journey seems to be a little bit delayed but should not be derailed,” Lagarde said.
