The United States will intensify its pressure on the Group of Seven industrial nations today to agree a generous package of debt relief for Iraq after the decision by the International Monetary Fund to grant its first loan to the conflict-ravaged country.
Urged on by the US, the IMF agreed to an emergency $436.3m (£241m) loan to help the new Iraqi government rebuild the economy and "catalyse additional international support, including debt relief".
