Question:
Summarize the argument implied by these sentences. 1. Clearly , states that lend money to such tyrants can not justly attempt to extract payment from successor regimes , considering that the loans they made often helped keep repressive dictators in power .
2. To expect the democratic government of Haiti to pay for these excesses is entirely unjust and only compounds to the harms already inflicted by the dictatorship .
3. 40 % of Haiti 's current debt is the result of Duvalier 's corruption .
4. An example of the debt burden created by dictators is the case of Haiti , where Jean-Claude Duvalier , dictator from 1971 to 1986 , pursued a policy of mass corruption and self-enrichment , taking on foreign loans to finance his own lavish lifestyle and the repression of the Haitian people .
5. Rather , as such tyrannical regimes made little distinction between the personal holdings of the dictator and those of the state , the debts accrued by him should be considered personal , not public debt .
6. Expecting a government to pay back the debts accrued by a tyrant or dictator to finance their own self-enrichment is an unjust practice , as the people of the state , and the present regime , have not benefited fully , or at all , from the debts incurred in their name .
7. Such debts are held by many legal theorists , like Alexander Sack and Patricia Adams , to be ethically unenforceable .
8. Debts that are incurred by regimes for purposes other than the benefit of the country are called `` odious debts '' .
Answer:

The debts incurred by many developing countries are the results of loans made to dictators and tyrants and not that of current regimes
