The World Bank Board of Directors, according to unofficial data, continues to consider an “exit strategy” for World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz from his post . The point is that the bank will take part of the responsibility for the situation that Wolfowitz found himself in when resolving a conflict of interest, and the head of the bank will leave his post within a “reasonable” time frame.
Yesterday, US President George W. Bush, at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, said: “I admire Paul Wolfowitz, I admire his warmth and especially his desire to help the poor. Wolfowitz is interested in ensuring that the bank deals with what is really important - human needs, the living conditions of people." “I regret that things have come to the point of considering his resignation,” concluded the owner of the White House.
