Volker Wieland gave interviews at Reuters (02.12.2013) and Handelsblatt (04.12.2013) about current topics in monetary policy. Whereas the interview with Reuters dealt with Volker Wieland's own time at the Fed and the coming Fed-President Janet Yellen (for the articles see FAZ and Handelszeitung), Wieland advised not to cut the interest rate in the euro area any further in the interview with Handelsblatt (see Reuters and Cash).
