TOKYO (Reuters) -- Carlos Ghosn, CEO of Nissan Motor Co. and Renault SA, said on Tuesday he would not resign from his post at the Japanese automaker at least until it was back making profits. Ghosn, who was sent from Renault in 1999 to lead Nissan initially as chief operating officer, had said in the past he expected his tenure to last a maximum 10 years. "If you leave now, you wouldn't be leaving -- you would be deserting," he told Reuters in an interview after announcing the first operating loss under his watch on Tuesday. He added that he had no intention of leaving of his own volition until Nissan achieved a "clear" return to profitability. |
