鲍威尔:决心捍卫美联储的独立性,继续担任美联储理事“一段时间”
Odaily Planet Daily News: Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell stated at a press conference that after stepping down as chairman, he will continue to serve as a Fed governor for "some time." Powell noted that over the past three months, the Fed has suffered unprecedented damage, and he is determined to defend the Fed's independence. Powell clarified that the damage he refers to is not political criticism but merely legal proceedings. He said, "What has happened over the past three months leaves me with no choice but to stay." Powell stated that unless the Federal Inspector General files a criminal referral, the Department of Justice will not launch another investigation into him. However, Powell expressed dissatisfaction with this, saying, "I will continue to serve as a Fed governor for an undetermined term," and pledged to "keep a low profile." (Jin Shi)
