The IMF has indefinitely postponed its staff mission to Moscow, responding to backlash from European allies regarding the planned review of the Russian economy post-invasion.
Officials stated that after gathering widespread criticism, it would take more time to ensure a rigorous analysis of Russia's economic situation before any mission.
Nine European countries protested against the IMF's plans, indicating it would tarnish the fund's reputation to engage with a nation having invaded another.
Critics of the IMF's initial plan asserted that any visit would be based on inaccurate data, potentially giving Russia undue legitimacy and respectability.
