Zimbabwe and the International Monetary Fund
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
2005 Loan repayment
In 2005, Zimbabwe made a mystery loan repayment of US$120 million to the International Monetary Fund due to expulsion threat from IMF.[3][4][5]
Zimbabwe in 2005 was economically torn down, in the midst of serious economic crisis; collapsing currency, de-investment, hunger and droughts, shortages of critical food supplies among others. This dates back to 1990s and early 2000s crisis and Zimbabwe's involvement in the war of Congo. Zimbabwe took a credit from IMF and went to war in Congo.[citation needed]
