GREECE is considering bowing to external pressure and accepting a full role for the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in its next aid deal with European Union (EU) authorities, according to three officials with direct knowledge of the negotiations.

Keeping the IMF involved would be a blow to Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, who has pushed for Greece to have a clean exit from the 240 billion euro (S$390 billion) bailout and free his country from IMF oversight.
