The IMF does not want to write down Greeces's loans in the least bit. The IMF is normally the first creditor to be repaid and Greece is the only first world nation to miss a payment. >Meanwhile, missing the IMF payment will cut Greece off from new loans from the organization. http://www.nola.com/business/index.ssf/2015/06/greece_becomes_1st_developed_c.html http://www.nola.com/business/index.ssf/2015/06/greece_become...

But there is nothing in there that otherwise is going to force a compromise. Right? It is going to go on forever... VELKOULESKOU: They are not getting close. What is interesting though is that they did give in...they did give a little bit on both the income tax reform and on the.... both on the tax credit and the supplementary pensions. They are doing something but it is very small... https://wikileaks.org/imf-internal-20160319/transcript/page-7.html https://wikileaks.org/imf-internal-20160319/transcript/page-... The IMF is scared of setting a precedent to loan out more bad money when other countries in Europe are soon to face the dilemmas of Greece. Members of the EU itself have begun to question the IMF's role in the Troika governing the EU, made up of the European Commission, European Central Bank and the IMF. The Banks are not your friend
