помочь сильно зависящей от нефти экономике Эквадора пережить падение мировых цен на нефть. Эта сумма – самая крупная из тех, что Китай предоставил Эквадору, – увеличивает объем китайского финансирования почти до 25 миллиардов долларов, что составляет более четверти ВВП страны. В 2013 году кредиты Пекина составили 61% внешнего финансирования Эквадора, также Китай закупил 83% эквадорской нефти; этот кредит, несомненно, значительно увеличит оба показателя. (Zuckerman, “Eye on Ecuador: Racking Up the China Debt and Paying It Forward with Oil”, Amazon Watch, January 13, 2015, http://amazonwatch.org/news/2015/0113-racking-up-the-china-debt-and-paying-it-forward-with-oil). В аналитическом материале Wall Street Journal говорится: «В настоящее время кредиты Китая Эквадору превышают 6 миллиардов долларов, в том числе 1,7 миллиарда долларов на финансирование 85% Coca Codo Sinclair, гидроэлектростанции, которая будет построена китайской компанией Sinohydro Corp. в Эквадоре и будет обеспечивать около 75% потребностей страны в электричестве» (Alvaro, “China, Ecuador Sign $2 Billion Loan Deal”). Я решил использовать официальные правительственные данные по долгу, как сообщалось в эквадорской газете El Comercio от 29 июля 2015 г., «La prensa de EE.UU. alerta la dependencia de Ecuador a China».
