DUBAI - The IMF urged Yemen’s internationally recognized government on Friday to extend its payments of public sector salaries to the whole country to help the war-shattered economy to recover.
The IMF also praised the government, which is based in the southern port of Aden after being ousted from the capital Sanaa by the Iran-aligned Houthi movement, for already making some payments to workers and paying all pensions in areas of Yemen outside its own control. “We urge the government to pay all civil service salaries throughout the country,” the International Monetary Fund said in a statement after an IMF team met Yemeni officials and private sector participants in Amman, Jordan on July 10-18.
But the government began paying salaries and pensions to Yemenis at least in some Houthi-controlled areas early this year and the IMF urged it to continue this practice and extend the payments to all parts of the country.
