International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde is cutting short a trip to Southeast Asia to attend a meeting of euro-area finance ministers on Greece next week.
Lagarde “will participate in a eurogroup meeting on Nov. 20, as she usually does,” IMF spokesman Gerry Rice told reporters in Manila today. “That will mean shortening her current trip to Asia.”
