ISLAMABAD: Pakistan kick-started the "toughest" technical-level talks with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Tuesday to break the deadlock with the lender of the last resort and pave the way for striking a staff-level agreement.
Federal Minister for Finance and Revenue Ishaq Dar is leading the Pakistani side while IMF’s review mission is headed by Nathen Porter as the cash-strapped nation launches renewed efforts to complete the pending ninth review under the $7 billion Extended Fund Facility (EFF).
