Story angles

This event does not yet have its own comparison: here is the story's Christine Lagarde's departure from the ECB and the succession to the presidency.

Left- and right-wing media focus on the political implications of Christine Lagarde's departure, particularly for the 2027 presidential election and the ECB succession, while centrist media place more emphasis on the succession process and Lagarde's record.

Left

Centre

Focuses on the ECB succession process, the candidates in the running (Klaas Knot and Pablo Hernandez de Cos), Lagarde's climate record, and her potential role in the 2027 presidential election for the centrist bloc.

Right
