Captions available
The idea
Debt accumulation is the pressing issue the anchor assigns to middle-income nations, where repayment obligations bind national budgets and constrain future spending.
In practice
Servicing external debt can consume revenue that schooling and infrastructure would otherwise receive.
Where people slip
The debt did not appear by accident; it followed decisions about borrowing terms made by lenders and governments.
