This event was the second in a series of events about Pakistan; the first, on October 22, dealt with civil-military relations in the country. The December 3 discussion featured Dr. Mohsin Khan, until recently Director of the Middle East and Central Asia Department of the International Monetary Fund, and Khaleel Ahmed, Chief Investment Officer in the Global Financial Markets Department of the International Finance Corporation. Dr. Khan discussed the current economic crisis in Pakistan and the recent agreement with the IMF that has provided some relief.
