Muslim Brotherhood refuses to back Egypt IMF loan | Al Akhbar English

Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, the country's largest political force, on Tuesday held off from backing a request for a loan from the International Monetary Fund, urging more government transparency.

The Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party said it met with an IMF delegation in Cairo to discuss the loan which is aimed at securing Egypt's economy, in crisis since a popular uprising last year.

The FJP "does not have any reservations against dealing with the IMF or any other international institution where Egypt is a member," its head Mohammed Mursi said in a statement.
