India’s executive director at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) will put forward the country’s position on review of loans to Pakistan at a board meeting of the global financial institution on Friday, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri has said.
“We have an executive director at the IMF. Tomorrow there is a meeting of the Board of the IMF, and I’m sure that our executive director will put forward India’s position. The decisions of the Board are a different matter. But I think the case with regard to Pakistan should be self-evident to those people who generously open their pockets to bail out this country,” Misri said in response to a question at a press briefing on Thursday.
In its Board meeting on Friday, the IMF Board will discuss Pakistan’s staff-level agreement for a new $1.3 billion arrangement under a climate resilience loan programme, along with the first review of the ongoing $7 billion bailout package.
Misri indicated that financial support was indirectly enabling Pakistan to fund its military-intelligence operations, including groups such as Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). “Pakistan’s reputation as the epicentre of global terrorism is rooted in a number of instances… I don’t need to remind where Osama Bin Laden was found and who called him a martyr,” Misri said.
He further pointed out that a large number of terrorists, including those sanctioned by the UN, continue to operate within Pakistan’s borders.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
