World: Greece gets the first part of that massive aid package of theirs
- $38.6B
will get loaned to Greece over the next three years by the IMF - $7B
hits the country’s coffers as of right now; the rest comes later - $141B
was offered to the country in an aid package accepted last week source
- ยป Will this improve the country’s dismal state? It’ll improve the global market most likely but won’t ease tensions among its citizens. The extremely unpopular austerity measures were a condition of the aid package they got from the IMF, European Central Bank and European Commission. So they’re not going away, kids.
