The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has reiterated its dedication to maintaining global economic and financial stability, emphasizing its role in fostering international cooperation despite evolving geopolitical shifts.
This statement comes as the newly formed Donald Trump administration pushes forward with its “America First” agenda, prompting the U.S. to reassess its engagement with global institutions.
Speaking at the IMF’s first press briefing of the year, Julie Kozack, Director of the Communications Department, highlighted the Fund’s unwavering focus on helping member countries navigate economic uncertainties.
“We have a clearly defined mandate to support global economic and financial stability, ultimately fostering growth and employment worldwide. As an institution, we remain laser-focused on that mission and take our responsibility to serve our membership very seriously,” Kozack stated.
She reaffirmed the IMF’s commitment to working with all member nations, including the United States, its largest shareholder.
“We have a long history of collaboration with successive U.S. administrations, and we look forward to continuing this partnership to fulfill our global mandate,” she added.
