Meanwhile, US debt recently surged to over $30 trillion, so maybe things aren't particularly falling apart for its loanee after all.

The debt can never be paid back, that the initial scheme of US to enslave these countries but as God will have, these countries are blessed and the way thinks are going, these are growing wings and will never pay the money back , cos they are becoming more powerful everyday economically and militaristic.

They are becoming wiser everyday which is why the parasitic police is busy looking for where export terrorism while packing their natural resources

Hmm, so china is owing US this much and not the other way round.

Well, this will finally address the debate and misconception

Actually, d USA owes china $1.050 trillion. SO, they owe China more than China owes them.

US has the highest debt to other countries in d world.

I don't quite agree with you.What will you now say of China?
Those loans were a significant part of their development today.
Loans are mainly given to develop your infrastructure when judiciously expended and like you rightly said that is why countries like Japan,China,Singapore have grown today.
Now look at how our African nations that have been borrowing now from China,what is the level of development that can be ascribed to the loans.
My point is, nobody force you to come borrow money,but if you have to borrow money,it is not meant to be embezzled or saved.

It's actually the other way round. China has purchased $800b of US securities which means US is owning China.

The write up is a bit flawed
Re: 20 Countries That Owe US Money by routed: 1:31pm On Apr 09
The Headline is misleading, they are holder of US debt. Meaning US owe them issuing Treasure Bill to these countries.

The person that post this doesn't understand what he read.

Why is everyone getting mislead?

My friend relax. Russia owe USA but not that much. it's only saying top 20 countries. That doesn't mean Nigeria is not owing USA either.

casualobserver:


If the OP had stopped to engage his brain or had any knowledge of the subject matter, he would have realized that something was amiss because a country like the Cayman Islands with a paltry GDP of $6B cannot be owning the US $260b. At current interest rates, the interest alone is more than twice their entire GDP. America will never let a country with a GDP of $6B owe then $260B!

You're absolutely right.

US owes china staggering amount of money 859.4 billion dollars.

US owes other countries as well.

Total US debt is 34 Trillion Dollars.

US is the largest debtor in the world

Countries don't owe like individuals. If I owe you 100 naira for instance and you you are to.pay me 500 naira, you will end up paying me 400 naira because you would have deducted the 100 naira owes to you.

Countries don't operate that way.

https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/080615/china-owns-us-debt-how-much.asp#:~:text=China%20is%20one%20of%20the,as%20the%20concept%20of%20money

Technically, If there's any country that USA is indebted to, as long as the currency is the dollars, then it's as good as zero, cos they would just simply print the total sum, and settle their debt.

There's a reason why the US is still the number 1 in the world.
