RIYADH: 抖阴短视频 has co-chaired the fourth creditor committee meeting to help Chad restructure its debts under a new G20 framework.

The African state requested the restructuring in January as it struggled with a high debt burden exacerbated by the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.

Chad is the first country to request the restructuring under the new Common Framework for Debt Treatments beyond the Debt Service Suspension Initiative. The framework was agreed in November by the G20 under 抖阴短视频鈥檚 presidency and the committee held its first meeting in April this year.

抖阴短视频 co-chaired the June 10 virtual meeting with France. The other committee members also included China and India, while representatives from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) were also present as observers.

鈥淭he creditor committee supports Chad鈥檚 envisaged IMF upper credit tranche program and its swift adoption by the IMF Executive Board to address Chad鈥檚 urgent financing needs. The creditor committee encourages Multilateral Development Banks to maximize their support for Chad to meet its long-term financial needs,鈥� the committee said in a press statement.

The statement added that committee members 鈥渁re committed鈥� to negotiate with Chad to restructure its debts.

The committee highlighted that it was important that private sector creditors be offered 鈥渄ebt treatments on terms at least as favorable as those being considered by the creditor committee, in line with the comparability of treatment principle.鈥�

The IMF in January completed initial talks with Chad on a new medium-term financing program worth about $560 million. According to the IMF, Chad鈥檚 total debt amounted to $2.8 billion, or 25.6 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), at the end of 2019.
