Directly yes, but influences the long end as well, especially by promising forever low short term rates and by goosing the money supply. But the point of low interest rates is to cause inflation, and inflation must necessarily eventually drive up interest rates in the future. So, if the long end rates increase, the re-inflation target was a success!

E.G. No depression.
