‘End ECB dick-tatorship!’ Protester attacks Draghi during keynote speech (VIDEO)
Edited time: April 15, 2015 14:34
A protester, apparently from the FEMEN protest movement, interrupted a televised speech by European Central Bank president Mario Draghi, when she jumped onto the table and showered him with confetti, while shouting “End ECB dictatorship!”
It was unclear how the woman, who was wearing a t-shirt with the punning slogan “End ECB dick-tatorship” was able to gain access into the ECB headquarters in Frankfurt. Although the protester, who appeared to have an English accent, eschewed FEMEN’s customary tactic of naked protest, several media observers identified her as an activist belonging to the international protest group. She had allegedly gatecrashed previous public appearances by Vladimir Putin and Dominique Strauss-Kahn.

The woman was quickly intercepted by security and removed from the stage, as the TV feed cut off. The press conference restarted within a matter of minutes, with an obviously bemused Draghi fastidiously sweeping the remains of the confetti off his desk.

When the floor was subsequently opened to questions, Draghi reassured a concerned journalist that he was not affected by the incident.
The economic content of the event brought few surprises, with the 67-year-old Italian banker confirming that ECB interest rates will remain unchanged, and endorsing a continuation of its quantitative easing program.
