Les Etats-Unis annulent 1 million de dollars au titre du service de la dette

    ABIDJAN

    Les Etats-Unis ont annulé ce mardi 1 million de dollars que le Sénégal leur devait, afin de permettre à Dakar de réorienter cette somme vers son programme de croissance économique, a annoncé l'ambassade des Etats-Unis à Dakar. Ce montant représente les obligations du Sénégal au titre du service de la dette à l'égard des Etats-Unis, a précisé l'ambassade dans un communiqué. La décision s'inscrit dans le cadre de l'Initiative en faveur des pays pauvres les plus lourdement endettés (HIPC), qui encourage vivement les créanciers à annuler au moins 90 pour cent du service de la dette des nations pauvres pour des prêts consentis avant le 1er janvier 1983.
