Quick Glance: Paris Olympics Flame Lit in Greek Cradle Amid Weather Challenges
- Despite the absence of Apollo, the flame for the Paris Olympics was ignited at the site of the ancient games in southern Greece on Tuesday.
- A backup flame was used as cloudy skies prevented the traditional lighting, where an actress dressed as an ancient Greek priestess typically uses the sun to ignite a silver torch.
- The flame will be carried by torchbearers from Olympia for over 5000 kilometers through Greece before being handed over to the Paris Games organizers in Athens on April 26.
- The Belem, a French three-masted sailing ship, will transport the Olympic flame from Greece to Marseille, arriving on May 8 after visiting the historic site of Olympia.

Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: ECB: Lagarde Emphasizes Data-Dependent Rate Policy
- The European Central Bank (ECB) cannot pre-determine the number of interest rate cuts that will follow even after initiating rate reductions, as this will rely on incoming data, stated ECB President Christine Lagarde on Wednesday.
- Several ECB policymakers are in favor of an initial reduction in interest rates from their current record highs, potentially in June. The current focus of discussion lies in determining the subsequent steps.
- Lagarde aimed to temper speculations by highlighting the necessity of data-driven decisions. She stressed that even after the first rate cut, a fixed rate path cannot be predetermined. Adapting to new information from meeting to meeting is crucial.
- Lagarde outlined the prerequisites for commencing rate cuts: deceleration in wage growth, ongoing decline in inflation, and internal forecasts confirming the return of price growth to the 2% target.
