The German government said Tuesday that the European Central Bank (ECB) acts within its mandate with its plan to help the struggling euro countries. As he defended his finance minister, Wolfgang Schäuble, to the Executive of Angela Merkel "no doubt" that the ECB acts according to law with its bond-buying program, a move that has not been activated yet. Schäuble, who has asked to respect the independence of the ECB, was speaking on arrival at the German Constitutional Karlsruhe (southwest). The Court must decide whether the European Central Bank's assistance violates the German constitution.
With the session that started Tuesday and scheduled for tomorrow, the high court has to decide on a date to be determined, if, as alleged by the appeal signed by more than 37,000 German citizens, the action raised in August by the President of ECB, Mario Draghi, beyond the mandate of the monetary authority and invades national competitions. The Constitutional and kept in suspense to the eurozone in September for its decision on the European bailout fund. In that case, gave its approval with minimal conditions.
The new resource doubts the bond-buying program that mere announcement served to quell speculation against sovereign debt of southern eurozone, which is going through its best since the outbreak of the crisis thanks to Draghi. However, critics argue that support demand that the ECB assumes this initiative skills that exceed their strict mandate-which is linked to monetary policy and inflation control, and has ultimately without legal basis, the German taxpayer money.
In any case, the president of the Constitutional, Andreas Vosskuhle, and has advanced the institution does not take into account the success of the program at the time of their compatibility with the Constitution. "It does not matter in assessing the constitutionality of laws and measures that are being considered if they have had success," said Vosskuhle in the opening of the hearing.
With the program, known as OMT, the ECB is ready to intervene in the secondary debt markets to buy the debt of countries that so request in order to ensure funding. Draghi justified this program on the need to ensure the stability of the euro and partners who want to benefit from it must meet a number of strict conditions.
Despite its conditionality, the plan does not like for a major part of the German public. A poll released today by the business daily Handelsblatt notes that nearly half of Germans are against the WTO, while only a third support it.
One of the fiercest critics of the plan Draghi has been the Bundesbank (German central bank), which although it has not joined the constitutional complaint, which has expressed itself repeatedly against the ECB proposal. The Speaker of the House, Jens Weidmann, declared in this view as an expert and is expected to substantiate their reluctance, the plea against the program that will give the German member of the ECB Council, Jörg Asmussen.
This economist and noted on the eve of the view that the stoppage of the "severe consequences" and evoked the "risk reversal" fueled by Draghi, that is, the breakup of the eurozone.
