Strauss-kahn Interview

Former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn declared in an interview broadcast on Wednesday on Russian television that his political career was over and he was instead working as an economic advisor.

A lawyer for the hotel maid, who accused Dominique Strauss-Kahn of sexually assaulting her, has criticised the former IMF chief for not disclosing what happened during the encounter.

Dominique Strauss-Kahn broke his silence four months after a New York hotel maid accused him of sexual assault, calling his encounter with the woman a "moral failing" he deeply regrets, but insisting in an interview on French television Sunday that no violence was involved.
