“Today the IMF mission ended, which began on Saturday, and we will meet next week, perhaps in Buenos Aires, possibly in Washington,” RIA Novosti quoted Lacuns as saying.
He said that Argentina had proposed "starting a dialogue on reviewing the maturities of debts owed to this international organization."
Earlier, the Argentinean Merval index fell by a record 37.93% to 27 529.38 points. Soon after, Nicholas Dukhovny resigned from the post of head of the Ministry of Finance of the country, and Hernan Lacunsa took his place.
In March, the IMF and Argentine authorities reached an agreement under the economic assistance program, according to which the country could receive a tranche of about $ 10.87 billion.
