According to Odaily, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump stated during an appearance on NBC's 'Meet the Press with Kristen Welker' that he does not intend to replace Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell after taking office in January next year. When asked by Welker if he would seek to replace Powell, Trump responded, 'No, I don't think so.' He further elaborated, 'I think if I tell him, he will (resign). But if I ask him (to resign), he might not.' This statement suggests that Trump is not planning any immediate changes to the leadership of the Federal Reserve, which plays a crucial role in shaping U.S. monetary policy. Trump's comments come amid ongoing discussions about the future direction of the Federal Reserve and its policies under his administration. The Federal Reserve, led by Powell, has been instrumental in navigating the U.S. economy through various challenges, and Trump's decision to retain Powell could signal a desire for continuity in monetary policy. As the nation prepares for the transition of power, Trump's remarks provide insight into his approach to economic governance and the potential stability of the Federal Reserve's leadership.
