    • How IMF, ECB have the power to decide fate of Greece

      Greek leaders have fought fiercely in recent months with politicians from other European countries over relief on Greece's vast debt load. Yet the power to decide the fate of Greece lies not just in the hands of these national governments, but also with unelected officials at two powerful institutions: the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund.
