Aid and debt write offs should be subject to the governments of poor nations meeting minimum human rights standards?

On average, everyone strongly agrees with nonconsensus between 231 voters.

Reasons To Disagree

Withholding aid from a country only hurts those most in need. A regime that is oppressing all or some of its citizens couldn't care less whether or not they receive aid, because they are not affected by the poverty and hardship.

Iraq in the 1990s shows that impoverishing a country makes the people less able to overthrow a bad regime. A nation with healthy prosperous people is more capable of achieving a just government.

Reasons To Agree

how can countries that practice rendition judge human rights?

There should be a string of conditions imposed for any aid.

Knowing that there are people dying every 3seconds in our world due to preventable dieases and not making any effort to help, and New Zealand per capta being the 3rd lowest country in the world to donate money to ending world poverty just shows that new zealand can not call themsleves a country that believes and shows human rights

anything that encourages governments to meet human rights standards should be tried, and if money is the motivating force then so be it.
