Reasonable argument, but I disagree. As I have said, #Argentina's holdout bondholders were seen as even more villainous than the #IMF, and @mauriciomacri survived the 2016 settlement politically unscathed.

Outreach to the #IMF comes with a "heavy price," @binettibruno writes in @amerquarterly, since "the Fund is particularly dreaded in Argentina" and "brings back memories of the collapse of the early 2000s." http://americasquarterly.org/content/argentina-will-imf-save-or-doom-macris-reform-agenda … #Argentina

Meanwhile,
@Lagarde clearly admires@mauriciomacri's reform agenda, and is eager to repair the#IMF's image in#Argentina. And though the Trump White House might question a bailout, it too supports the Casa Rosada and would likely support an@IMFNews line of credit.Show this thread -
That said,
@mauriciomacri will have to emphasize the light conditionality on any#IMF program. The latest@UADEoficial/@VoicesResearch survey found that 47% of Argentines had a negative view of the Fondo Monetario Internacional.@IMFNews @MinHaciendaAr @MinFinanzasShow this thread
