The International Monetary Fund censured Venezuela Wednesday for failing to hand over essential economic data to the fund.
"The (Executive) Board noted that adequate data provision was an essential first step to understanding Venezuela's economic crisis and identifying possible solutions," an IMF statement said.
The board is giving Venezuela another six months to comply or face possible expulsion from the IMF.
"The Fund stands ready to work constructively with Venezuela toward resolving its economic crisis when it is prepared to re-engage with the Fund."
Venezuela has not responded to the IMF's action. But President Nicolas Maduro's socialist government has long declined to provide data to the IMF. It regards the Fund as a U.S. tool and part of a Washington-inspired economic war against Venezuela.
Corruption and the collapse of world energy prices has led to an economic calamity in oil-rich Venezuela, including hyper-inflation and severe shortages of many basic goods.
国际货币基金组织星期三批评委内瑞拉未将重要经济数据交给国际货币基金组织。
该组织的一份声明说:“(执行)董事会认为,得到相关数据是了解委内瑞拉经济危机和寻找可能的解决方案的第一个关键步骤。”
国际货币基金组织的执董会又给了委内瑞拉6个月的时间完成数据提交,如果还不能完成,委内瑞拉有可能被开除出国际货币基金组织。
国际货币基金组织的声明说:“委内瑞拉如果愿意重新开始与基金组织一道工作,基金组织愿意与委内瑞拉进行建设性的合作,寻找化解其经济危机的办法。”
委内瑞拉对国际货币基金组织的举措没有做出回应。不过,委内瑞拉总统马杜罗的社会党政府一直拒绝向国际货币基金组织提供经济数据,认为该组织是美国的一个工具,也是美国向委内瑞拉发起的经济战的组成部分。
腐败以及世界能源价格下跌在石油蕴量丰富的委内瑞拉导致经济灾难,包括超高通胀以及很多基本物资的短缺。
