We should conclude these negotiations next year and sign an agreement on the establishment of a commission to review applications for the launch of this international tool,
We would like to express our strong dissatisfaction with such IMF plans,
What recommendations does the IMF want to give Russia at the end of the consultation? How to better run a war economy
Russia should be suspended from the IMF while these data questions persist,
Such a move would create substantial reputational risks for the IMF,
The Fund and its member countries have a mutual obligation to conduct consultations under Article IV of the IMF Articles of Agreement (under which the IMF holds annual discussions with officials of every member country),
We urge all international financial institutions, including the IMF and its management, to continue refraining from the activities involving the aggressor state and not to resume dialogue as long as Russia continues its war of aggression against Ukraine,
Donors can choose other institutions like the World Bank or the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development,
We thus call on the IMF not to resume cooperation with Russia and to remain committed to the purposes and principles of the UN Charter,
Article IVs are not an option, but an institutional obligation for the fund and are carried out for the benefit of the whole of the membership,
