Greece will pay 459 million euros to the IMF in the day


A Greek government official confirmed to Reuters: "payment is planned and will be done in the day."


After days of suspense, Athens honors its April payment on this loan which expired Thursday.


The Minister of Finance Yanis Varoufakis had to go in person in Washington on Sunday to reassure the IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde. But what will happen in May or other deadlines looming?


By then, the Greek Prime Minister continues in Moscow a charm offensive closely scrutinized by the Europeans. He confirmed that he had not asked for direct financial support to Vladimir Putin, but the two countries will strengthen economic cooperation.
