reuters.com/markets/ghana-fails-reach-debt-deal-with-bondholders-2024-04-15/
Quick Glance: Ghana Fails to Reach Debt Agreement with Bondholders
- Ghana was unable to reach an agreement with a group of international bondholders to restructure $13 billion in debt. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the bondholder group rejected parts of the proposed plan.

- In December 2022, Ghana, the world's second-largest cocoa producer, defaulted on a majority of its $30 billion external debt, following a surge in debt costs and inflation as it was cut off from international markets.
- The failure of the debt agreement represents a setback for Ghana's efforts to recover from default and economic crisis.

How South Korea election may reshape Yoon's policy agenda
reut.rs/3VTyQP2
Quick Glance: Challenges for South Korea's Yoon After Election Defeat
- Following his conservative party’s devastating loss in this week's parliamentary elections, South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol is facing significant setbacks in expanding the country's role within emerging US-led regional blocs aimed at countering a confident China, according to analysts.
- Yoon's ruling People Power Party secured 108 seats, trailing far behind the liberal Democratic Party of Korea, which obtained a comfortable majority with 175 seats in the 300-member parliament. Voter participation reached 67 per cent, marking a multi-decade high.
- Despite these challenges, it is anticipated that Yoon will continue his diplomatic approach and strengthen ties with the US and Japan given North Korea's nuclear threats and China's increasing influence.
- Some critics have called for a more balanced approach between South Korea's traditional allies and China, accusing Yoon of needlessly provoking the country's primary trading partner and inadvertently pushing Pyongyang further into Beijing's sphere of influence.
