The European Central Bank’s concerns about inflation haven’t abated since its last meeting, but uncertainties including the unfolding crisis in Japan could affect interest-rate decisions in coming months, a top ECB official said.The remarks by Bank of Finland Governor Erkki Liikanen, made in an interview with The Wall Street Journal, suggest an interest-rate increase in April remains a strong possibility.
