Wikileaks veröffentlicht ein Transkript der Telefonkonferenz der Troika über Griechenland
Description
The IMF would like to put debt relief for Greece on the Troika-agenda. However, IMF officials are worried that the EU is going to be paralyzed in the first half of 2016 because of the looming Brexit so that no decision is going to be made as to Greece.
IMF Europe director Thomsen wants to pressure Merkel and reiterate to her that IMF leaving the Troika is going to look bad and is going to lead to discomforting questions in the Bundestag.
Thomsen connects the debt relief question loosely to the refugee question. He talks about the refugees and then says that the IMF will at the same time („we at the time say“) come in with their demands and approach Merkel with the debt relief.
Background:
Merkel is generally considered a proponent of the IMF participation in the Troika. She managed to get the IMF in despite bitter opposition by some European leaders like Sarkozy.
Merkel is considered somewhat undecided on debt relief for Greece (though apparently leaning towards „no“ since she, like many of her European counterparts, fears creating a precedent in Europe.)
