The Ransom: why France must reimburse billions to Haïti ?

In The Ransom Fleury explained how France has forced Haïti to pay ninety million gold francs for the recognition of its independence, and how the payment of this debt had hindered and mortgaged the future of the nation.The author concluded that France must reimburse the ＂double debt＂ that Haïti has paid. Through cooperation is a first solution, especially in the areas of education, culture, higher education and research, public health, agriculture, and sustainable development. In addition, said the author, France must help Haïti in the process of a total revision of ultraliberal economic policies that strangle it for years and years. Policies dictated by international institutions such as the IMF, the World Bank, and the WTO in which France plays a leading role.
