The managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has reassured German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble that IMF plans to remain constructively engaged in talks about aid for Greece, his spokesman said on Friday.
The spokesman told newsmen at a regular government news conference during the World Economic Forum in Davos.
“The IMF Managing Director, Christine Lagarde spoke with Schaeuble about the Greek bailout programme and told him that the IMF was aiming to continue its participation,’’ he said.
Schaeuble, however, denied a report in Bild newspaper that Berlin was preparing for a deal without the global lender, which has said it will join the deal only if it includes significant debt relief.
