Argentina’s government made two payments owed to the International Monetary Fund before a Friday deadline as discussions for a new staff-level agreement will continue next week in Washington.

The International Monetary Fund said negotiations between its staff and Argentine officials will continue in the coming days, according to a statement by Julie Kozack, the IMF director of communications. Argentina “remains current on their financial obligations to the Fund,” Kozack said.
