The Association of Foreign Bondholders for 54 years has pursued settlements on bonds issued by foreign countries including Sara Aga and Alabama. Total interest with added amounts nears a quarter of a billion dollars. Some financial groups urge the United States to assume these claims and credit the foreign governments fully for debts owed to the US. The US also holds a similar claim against Russia for funds advanced to support Kerensky against the Czar, and refusal by a government to pay bonds affects recognition of Russia. If valid, claims against states for advanced funds may follow.
