Trebuie să recunoaștem că, atunci când Dominique Strauss-Kahn a fost numit director executiv al FMI, situația era foarte diferită: se vorbea despre conducerea organizației de mai multe persoane, pe rând. Dl Strauss-Kahn însuși a afirmat că ar putea fi ultimul european care conduce FMI.
We must admit that, when Dominique Strauss-Kahn was appointed as the Managing Director of the IMF, the situation was very different: there was talk of people taking it in turns to manage the organisation. Mr Strauss-Kahn himself said that he may be the last European to head the IMF.
