15. 我们承认重债穷国是国际社会作出减免债务努力的重点对象 我们也承认中等收入国家和非重债穷国的国家的债务问题也需要加以解决 我们建议在考虑非洲国家债务时把中等收入国家和没有得到重债穷国债务倡议好处的其他国家也考虑在内 并将它们纳入有利于重债国家的国际倡议中 应该以更加优越的条件让这类国家更多地获得债务转换安排
15. While we recognize that the highly indebted poorest countries are the priority for the international community’s debt relief efforts, we are also cognizant of the debt problems of middle-income countries and non-HIPC countries that need to be addressed. We recommend that middle-income and other countries not benefiting from the HIPC initiative be taken into consideration in the thinking on African country indebtedness and be integrated in international initiatives favouring heavily indebted countries. Such countries should also be accorded expanded access to debt swap and conversion facilities on more generous terms.
