"The guidance that we have given these committees of the ECB is different than those we have given previously." "There's full transparency on the countries in which this will be undertaken and the amounts." "This effort is going to be forcused on the short-term part of the yield curve." This does not exclude something on the long part, "but the effort as such will be focused on the short part."
