“Senegal’s National Assembly, which is dominated by the opposition, rejected a key budget bill Tuesday, a text that was seen as crucial to restoring public finances as the country finalises an IMF bailout. Senegal in September announced it had struck a $2.2-billion International Monetary Fund debt programme aimed at stabilising its public finances. But the IMF has yet to announce executive board approval and the bailout is subject to certain conditions. The country’s powerful Pastef party, which holds an overwhelming majority in parliament, has long made clear its rejection of the 2026 revised budget, which came before parliament Tuesday.” (11/03/26)
