Trichet Doesn't Want CNN to Release Secret ECB Letter

Says letter to the Irish finance minister contains information that was once confidential

Readers may recall that I've been writing in recent weeks about the secret letter the ECB sent to Ireland that apparently hastened that country into an EU-IMF bailout.  A sign that some progress has been made in getting the letter released was the agreement of Irish finance minister, Michael Noonan, that the letter should be published, though apparently not until some point in the future.
