Official: IMF admits the failure of the Greek program

An attempt by the IMF to officialize its new tactics

IMF chief, Christine Lagarde, has ordered an investigation to ascertain the reasons for the failure of the Greek program and its implementation in the period 2010-2012.

According to the Greek newspaper, Real News, the investigation will be held by an independent committee, while the former Greek prime minister, Lucas Papademos, has already testified as well as the representative of Greece to the IMF, Miranda Xafa. Both expressed their opinion on the Greek program, the mistakes and omissions that led to failure.
