The European Central Bank (ECB) has raised interest rates for the first time in more than 11 years as it tries to control soaring eurozone inflation.

 

The ECB increased its key interest rate by 0.5 percentage points to 0.0% and plans further hikes this year.

 

The rate has been negative since 2014 in a bid to boost the region's economy after years of weak growth.

Hope the exchange rate won't be a short flash in the pan.
