h2. Politicking steps up to replace IMF’s Strauss-Kahn
The race to succeed Dominique Strauss-Kahn as head of the International Monetary Fund stepped up Tuesday along with pressure on him to resign and avoid undermining the IMF, a key force of global economic stability.
The IMF board could soon move to oust Strauss-Kahn if he insists on remaining in his post while jailed on charges of trying to rape a New York City hotel maid.
Countries further afield began pressing that any discussions over his successor not be restricted to Europe.
Strauss-Kahn has said nothing about his future at the IMF. He was denied bail and is in a New York jail after his weekend arrest. He is due to appear next in court on Friday.
Experts say they think Strauss-Kahn will step down. But if he refuses, the IMF’s 24-member executive board could remove him or place him on administrative leave.
Even before his Sunday arrest, Strauss-Kahn was widely expected to resign from the IMF later this year to pursue the French presidency in 2012.
Despite Strauss-Kahn’s arrest, the IMF says it is operating normally with deputy John Lipsky as interim director.
