Well, I would say that on the whole the reaction from the Europeans has been very constructive. They're looking to make sure that if I'm approved that I have a good understanding of their concerns, one of which is the priority they attach to the bank's work in Africa. I understand how important the bank is for Africa.

So the worry is that the bank will become a more unilateral American organization?

I think as they talk to me they get a little less worried, and I think they will understand that, contrary to reputation, I'm not a unilateralist.

It's been reported that you had an increasingly tense relationship with Secretary Rumsfeld.
