 This is what evil sounds like in 2024. The only “growth” El Salvador will get from the IMF is one that will need surgical removal.

 The words sound confident but the face looks panicked. They know #bitcoin is the end for them. 
 Does El Salvador need a new IMF supported program? Are THEY talking about a program or is the IMF imposing?

 By "addressing risks arising from... uh... Pittcoin is a key element" she most likely refers to the risk for the IMF to becoming irrelevant. Understandably a key element for the IMF.
