IMF Trying to 'Suffocate Senegal Economically and Financially,' Says Journalist
In the context of the suspension of the IMF loan program and attempts to restructure its debt, Senegal has opted for "active management" of its financial obligations, Abdoulaye Mbow told Sputnik Africa.
This has allowed Senegal to avoid defaulting, the journalist noted.
Africa must defend its economic credibility in the face of such institutions, he added.
For its part, the IMF should not "present itself as a policeman armed with a baton, when in reality we could even accept a stick, provided it is a velvet one," he concluded.
