IMF expects "real fix" on Greece debt, warning against U.S. fiscal cliff (2)

"All partners share the same objectives and have the same concern to make sure that Greece is back on track and returns to economic stability and reaccess market as soon as possible," Lagarde said.

At a public lecture later, she urged eurozone to forge ahead with integration with the priority being a banking union to complement its monetary union.

Lagarde also advised American policymakers to avoid the so- called fiscal cliff at all costs, warning that expiring tax provisions and spending cuts would deter growth.
