IMF Meeting Live Updates: IMF Reviews $2.3 Billion In Aid For Pakistan; India Flags Concerns Over Fund Misuse And Terror Links

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) will conduct a critical review of Pakistan’s financing facilities at a crucial board meeting in Washington today, May 9. This review is crucial as Pakistan seeks additional funding to support its struggling economy, which is laden with significant debt and cash flow challenges. India will oppose the additional funding to Pakistan in this meeting, and the country has already made it clear. India has called on the IMF board members to thoroughly examine Pakistan’s situation and consider the facts before approving further funds.

Tensions between India and Pakistan continue to escalate. Following the Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed the lives of 26 people, India retaliated with a precision strike under Operation Sindoor, destroying 9 terror camps within Pakistan and Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK). Since then, Pakistan is involved in mischiefs against India, with India giving befitting reply to Pakistan.
