Cinq ans après la première rencontre Sud-Nord sur la dette qui eut lieu à Dakar, Sénégal, nous, représentant-e-s venus de 51 pays avons tenu la deuxième rencontre ‘Résistance et alternatives à la domination de la dette’, du 28 au 30 septembre 2005 à La Havane, Cuba. Nous avons ainsi marqué le 20° anniversaire des rencontres historiques de La Havane qui attirèrent l’attention du monde entier sur la véritable nature de la crise de la dette et encouragèrent la résistance au paiement d’une dette asservissante.

We marked the 20th anniversary of the historic Havana meetings that focused the world’s attention on the true nature of the debt crisis and strengthened the resistance to the payment of enslaving debt.

Those gatherings helped to generate greater global consciousness about the real nature of the problem as well as to strengthen the struggle against the payment of a debt that enslaves. Fidel Castro echoed what had been expressed by the enormous diversity of participants, when he declared that the debt of the countries of the South of the world is unpayable not only mathematically and financially but also morally and politically.

A terme, 20 autres pays pourraient en bénéficier, portant le total à 55 milliards de dollars. Il peut paraître très étrange que les dirigeants du G8, ardents défenseurs de la « bonne gouvernance » et de la « transparence » chez les autres, aient pris l’initiative d’annuler des créances détenues par la Banque mondiale, la BAD et le FMI sans que ces trois institutions n’aient leur mot à dire. Ce n’était que partie remise : on vient d’apprendre que dès les jours suivants, plusieurs pays du Nord non membres du G8 se sont agités au FMI et ont mis en cause cette décision.

These could delay or even halt the debt cancellation promised to 18 countries by the G8 and maintain an IMF stranglehold over developing country economies even after they qualify for debt cancellation.

Although the HIPC has delivered more than $48 billion in debt cancellation, no participating country has achieved debt sustainability. Low income countries still owe a total of US$523 million in debt to all creditors. Of this, Africa alone has a debt stock of US$330 billion and still spends US$15 billion every year in debt service to rich countries and the international financial institutions.

C’est le résultat de la réunion des Ministres des Finances du G7, tenue les 10 et 11 juin 2005.

This weekend’s announcement of a deal on debt cancellation for 18 impoverished countries, 14 of which are in Africa, marks a small victory, but Africa Action emphasized that dozens of other African countries continue to be trapped under a burden of illegitimate debt, which the G-8 wealthy nations’ plan still fails to address. Africa Action also rejected the G-8’s embrace of the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) initiative as the framework for debt cancellation, noting the harmful economic conditions tied to this widely-discredited program. [Lire] - 14 June 2005 Exterminate the debt, not the poor The G7 finance ministers’ decision to cancel the debt owed by 18 heavily indebted poor countries (HIPCs) to the World Bank, International Monetary Fund and African Development Bank is a very good first step and a fantastic vindication of WDM activists for their decision to stick to their guns on this issue after Jubilee 2000 ended. However, it does not yet go far enough. About 40 more poor countries need full debt cancellation to meet the Millennium Development Goals. [Lire] - 13 June 2005
The 2005 G8: Business as usual the morning after? - 14 September 2005 - By Charles Abugre - Charles Abugre assesses promises made on debt, aid and trade, in the process questioning the myths that surround much of the development discourse. He concludes that G8 promises are unlikely to translate into delivery and questions whether progressive civil society should legitimise a fundamentally unaccountable global governance arrangement. - Source : Pambazuka News - 18 juillet 2005 - By Nnimmo Bassey - There are few issues that have captured the airwaves in Nigeria more than the twin campaigns in favor of debt relief and against corruption. A photograph of Nigeria’s former top cop made the front pages only to be followed the next day by apologies for humiliating the man. - Source : La dette odieuse rwandaise : quand le libre marché finance un génocide - juillet 2005 - Reno - « Si un pouvoir despotique contracte une dette non pas selon les besoins et les intérêts de l’Etat, mais pour fortifier son régime despotique, pour réprimer la population qui le combat, cette dette est odieuse pour la population de l’état entier. Cette dette n’est pas obligatoire pour la nation : c’est une dette de régime, dette personnelle du pouvoir qui l’a contractée ; par conséquent, elle tombe avec la chute de ce pouvoir1. » - Source : Afrique XX1 Jubilee South Africa - 2004 - By Cyrus Rustomjee - A case study for the UKZN project entitled: Globalisation, Marginalisation and New Social Movements in post-Apartheid South Africa. Jubilee South Africa (JSA) is a growing new social movement. Launched as Jubilee 2000 South Africa, in November 1998 at a conference of more than 60 civil society organisations, including the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU), the South African NGO Coalition (SANGOCO) and churches, it changed its name to JSA in 2001. Initially closely associated with the international Jubilee 2000 Coalition, JSA would, in the early years of its existence, shed this association and establish itself as a South African movement, with programmes, campaigns and objectives firmly rooted in local struggles. - Source : Centre for Civil Society |
