Representatives of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) believe that a possible Greek default may coincide with the referendum on Britain’s withdrawal from the EU, a WikiLeaks report revealed on Saturday, referring to a recent teleconference recording, which took place on March 19 between two representatives of the fund.
The teleconference was reportedly attended by the director of the European department of the fund Poul Thomsen and the head of the IMF mission in Greece Delia Velculescu.
According to the report, the IMF plans to declare its withdrawal from the “troika” of creditors if the fund and the European Commission cannot reach an agreement on the Greek debt.
According to Thomsen, the threat of an imminent financial disaster is necessary to force other parties make corresponding decisions. In particular, it is matter of reducing pensions of the Greek population and increasing taxes.
The IMF representatives believe that the referendum in the UK, scheduled for the end of June, may paralyze the decision-making process in Europe at a critical moment.
