Of the 77 nations eligible for debt relief, 30 have applied so far. The G-20’s plan is to suspend up to $1.1 billion in debt payments for poor countries.

Not all poor nations eligible for debt relief have signed up, as some fear their credit rating could get hit after warnings from rating agencies that failure to pay private creditors will count as a default. Kenya admitted this, to be the reason it did not sign up.
