Debt

[edit]

Can anyone calculate the net debt of Haiti? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dmanrox (talkcontribs) 04:10, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Early History

[edit]

Article says "Between 1964 and 1986 Haiti was ruled by the corrupt and oppressive Duvalier family. Loans incurred during this period alone are estimated to account for approximately 15% of Haiti's debt."; the source for this section, http://www.jubileedebtcampaign.org.uk/Haiti+3113.twl, says 40%, not 15%. Changing section to say 40%. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dellaslow (talkcontribs) 22:09, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Peak external debt of $1.8 billion

[edit]

I can't find a source for this claim, so have marked it dubious. The claim was previously cited to a Times article of 20 May 2009, but ctrl-f for "1.8" within that article comes up empty. The other cite isn't archived in The Wayback Machine or the Wikiwix archive, and since it seems to be from a pressure group, I'm dubious, anyway. ICA to spend hours in research and rewriting the article right now. Stroller (talk) 00:02, 7 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

" France demanded payment of 150 million francs. ..." is supported by http://www.odiousdebts.org/odiousdebts/index.cfm?DSP=content&ContentID=9636 but that website doesn't even exist anymore. The whole article sort of reposes on this claim. Sincerely, --SvenAERTS (talk) 13:45, 6 July 2017 (UTC) This number (2.1 billion is from statistica): Statista. “National Debt of Haiti 2025.” Statista, 1 Apr. 2021, www.statista.com/statistics/531604/national-debt-of-haiti. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:703:200:4CE4:797E:2CF:891D:DA61 (talk) 12:52, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
