Mozambique President Comes to US

On September 15th, Mozambique's President Filipe Nyusi came to Washington, DC for a series of meetings with International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Christine Lagarde, World Bank President Jim Yong Kim, Secretary John Kerry and US AID's Gayle Smith. The IMF suspended loans and the World Bank suspended direct aid to Mozambique after learning the country hid more than $1 billion in debt.

 

Jubilee USA's thoughts on the visit, and Mozambique's ongoing debt and transparency crisis, were featured in Voice of America, African Business Review and Reuters.
