Ethiopia becomes Africa's latest sovereign defaulter

Ethiopia failed to make a 33 million U.S. dollars coupon payment on its international government bond. The default, which was widely expected, places Ethiopia alongside Zambia and Ghana, in a full-scale "common framework" restructuring plan under the G20.

    A country without a government can not take on debt. imf doesn't even recognize it as a credited country.

    Ethiopian government made a deliberate decision to prioritize political power consolidation over fighting covid and/or continuation of economic development. Catastrophic miscalculation of the highest order 🤷🏽‍♂️

    I don't believe that's true. I have seen so much being done in Ethiopia and that includes growth as an outsider keeping up. We will see...I can understand what they are doing. The west always has expensive debt traps...Africa can only borrow if they pay back at a higher percentage than the other countries of the west. It is not a fare lane but they use it...the debt trap will be more manageable to clear with China because of payback rates.

    $33 million euros is nothing for Ethiopia who has a GDP of $315 billion and that's American not birr. I trust nothing Abiy says but him saying they didn't pay on purpose seems consistent.
