IMF chief says rapid economic recovery still possible if war ends soon

The global economy can still recover rapidly from the shock of the ‌Middle East ⁠war ⁠if the conflict ends in the next weeks, but the situation will be worse if it ⁠drags through ‌the summer, IMF Managing ⁠Director Kristalina Georgieva said on Tuesday.

Georgieva told an event hosted by the Bretton Woods Committee nonprofit group, that the ‌International Monetary Fund was in talks with countries ⁠hit hard by higher energy prices and supply chain disruptions to discuss their financial needs.
