[**Dominique Strauss-Kahn**][2]** **faces growing pressure to resign as head
|
|
of the IMF after being charged with the alleged sexual assault of a maid at a
|
|
hotel in New York on Saturday. He denies the charges.
|
|
|
|
In the US, which is the IMF's biggest shareholder, Mr Geithner said Mr
|
|
Strauss-Kahn is not in a position to run the International Monetary Fund and
|
|
said the board needed to "formally put in place for an interim period somebody
|
|
to act as managing director".
|
|
|
|
The 24-strong board of member countries has the authority to remove Mr
|
|
Strauss-Kahn from his post, and [**countries are already vying for position in
|
|
the battle for the top job**][3].
|
|
|
|
Mr Strauss-Kahn's arrest has thrown the IMF into turmoil just as it is playing
|
|
a key role in helping euro zone states like Greece and Portugal tackle debt
|
|
woes.
