Felt like people aren’t talking about the IMF forcing austerity on Argentina
IMF didn't force anything. Argentina needed money and money comes with strings attached in terms of economic reforms.
The thing is, for example, IMF recommend not to pursue the construction of gasoduct that will allow Argentina to sell LNG wich would provide dollars needed to pay such debt. How can that be?
