The European Central Bank announced that it will keep interest rates unchanged for the foreseeable future amid concerns about slowing economic growth in the eurozone. The decision was made at a meeting of the ECB’s governing council in Frankfurt. The central bank also stated that it will continue its asset purchase program, known as quantitative easing, until at least the end of the year. The ECB’s decision comes as the region’s largest economy, Germany, is facing challenges such as declining industrial production and weak business sentiment. Analysts are closely watching the ECB’s next steps as they try to gauge the impact of global economic uncertainty on the eurozone.
