PARIS, March 9 (Reuters) - France's inflation peak will come
in the first half of this year, French European Central Bank
policymaker Francois Villeroy de Galhau said on Thursday, adding
inflation across the euro zone was still too high and remained
the top priority for monetary policy.
"I can't comment on interest rates, but what is very
important is the inflation expectations", Villeroy said, adding:
"The peak will come this semester, and then inflation will halve
by the end of the year."
