[GMW #2119] Reparations For Poor Countries Including Annul Their Debts, Create Revolving Fund To Help Poor Countries

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500

~ Idea 1327 ~ 27 February 1998

I repeat my hope that in 2000, as a celebration of the bimillennium, all rich countries will annul the debts due to them by the poor countries. It would be in reparation of all the robberies of land, mineral resources and works of art over the centuries, for their own enrichment. The poor countries should ask their economists to calculate the astronomical debts due to them by the rich countries.

I also repeat that it was short-sighted of the US not to ask for the reimbursement at some future date of the interest-free Marshall Aid. Now that the recipient countries are rich, they should in the year 2000 reimburse that aid into a UN Revolving Fund to help the poor countries which would reimburse it in turn when they have become rich.

If every human being used positively, optimistically his hands, his mind, his heart and his soul, the world would be a fabulous place.
