Meloni urges ‘pragmatic’ IMF approach to Tunisia bailout

ITALY’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni today said the International Monetary Fund (IMF) should take a “pragmatic” approach to a bailout for Tunisia, in comments to other G7 leaders in Japan.

The North African country reached a deal in principle with the IMF in October for nearly US$2 billion (RM9.07 billion) to shore up its troubled economy, but discussions have since stalled.
