Reparations report backs staged German payments plan
Paris June 7 The experts report to the reparations commission unanimously recommends reducing reparations annuities over the next 37 years from 2.5 billion gold marks to about 2.05 billion. It proposes 1.7 billion gold marks for the final 22 years, subject to profits of a new International Bank, with an amortization arrangement involving creditor participation. It argues benefits include lightening Germany’s burden, depoliticizing the issue, and creating an orderly business framework while eliminating outside control. The report also notes early mobilization of a large portion of the initial 37 years.
