Countries that have outstanding debt in dollars or other foreign currencies are especially vulnerable. If their export revenues were to plunge relative to their debt-service obligations, the result could be crises reminiscent of Latin America’s in 1982 or the Asian and Russian currency crises of 1997-1998.
有着未了结美元或其他外币债务的国家尤其脆弱。如果它们的出口收入相对于债务维持成本发生崩溃，结果将是重演1982年的拉美悲剧或1997—1998年的亚洲和俄罗斯货币危机。
