自辞去国际货币基金组织总裁以来的第一次采访中，卡恩承认他在纽约与一名酒店女服务员存在暧昧关系在道德方面有错。但是他告诉法国电视台，他并没有强奸这名女服务员。Christian Fraser在巴黎报道。

If Dominique Strauss-Kahn still harbours any ambitions as a politician - and from the tenor of this interview, clearly he does - then this was a performance that ticked all the right boxes. There was humility: first an apology to his wife, Anne Sinclair, who has stood so loyally by him; and second to the French people, with whom he said "I have missed my appointment", referring to his aborted campaign to run for president.

如果卡恩作为一名政治家仍然藏有雄心的话——从采访中可以看出很明显他还有——这种表现是完全正确的选择。他非常谦卑：首先向一直忠诚地支持他的妻子Anne Sinclair道歉；然后向法国人民道歉，他说，“我辜负了大家的期望”，他指的是竞选总统的活动被迫中断。他承认自己在曼哈顿酒店房间作出了“不道德的行为”，但是他强烈否认检控官报告中所说的性侵犯这名女服务员。
