text: a number of donors last year to cancel substantial amounts of concessional debt. Sweden cancelled its official development assistance loans more than 10 years aqo. A much qrea ter burden is, hD1'11ever, the non-concess ional bilateral debt. Such claims accounted for more than half of the total debt service due for low-income Sub-Saharan Africa in 1988. The so-called Toronto terms for the reschedulinqs of this debt meant a major breakthrouqh in dealinq with that heavy burden. Implementation of t:he Toronto terms has h01'17ever been a cumbersome process and immediate relief han been limited. It is of qreat importance, therefore, that the strateqy for dealinq with this kind of debt be strenqthened. In my view, we should focus on three PD in ts: The first is Greater concessionality. Reschedulinq must be realistic. In many of the worst-off countries qrea ter relief will be necessary. The second is that Relief should be additional. The third is Lonqer-term aqreements. It must be recoqn ized that for many countries the ability fully to service their debt is a lonq way off. It is also time to deal with the stock of debt rather than exclusively debt service falling due.

Sweden therefore welcomes the new World Bank facility for this purpose, and hopes that the first operations can soon take place. Also here, additional resources will be needed. I have now emphasized the need for further debt relief. At the same time, it is clear that increased development assistance is needed as nuch as ever. Reactivation of growth in nany developing countries requires, besides some domestic efforts, additional new resources on concessional terms. In the 1990s we must co-operate to provide good quality aid in sufficient 
analysis: The text discusses debt relief and development assistance, specifically focusing on low-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. It highlights the need for concessionality, relief, and long-term agreements to address the burden of non-concessional bilateral debt. The text also mentions the importance of additional resources for development assistance and the need for good quality aid. Given the focus on economic development, debt relief, and development assistance, it is likely that the text falls under the category of economic development.
