The Netherlands and other EU countries walk out of IMF meeting as Russian Finance Minister speaks

Dutch Finance Minister Eelco Heinen has walked out of an IMF meeting in Bangkok during a speech by Russia's Finance Minister, in a sign of growing Western unease over Moscow's return to international economic forums. The protest comes as the United States and other hosts have started allowing Russian delegations back into high-level meetings, raising questions about how far efforts to isolate the Kremlin are beginning to erode.
