World debt has reached a record 188 trillion dollars

World debt has reached a record high of 188 trillion, or 230% of global GDP, said the head of the international monetary Fund Kristalina Georgieva. "Global debt, both public and private, reached a record high of 188 trillion dollars. It is about 230% of global production, " said Georgieva, a speech in the U.S. capital on the anniversary and the 20th annual conference of economic research Annual Research Conference. Predecessor Georgieva - Christine Lagarde - the year before, noted that the global debt amounted to 182 trillion. She urged governments to do all they can to reduce this figure, as the global economy slows its own growth and to ensure the payments will be increasingly difficult. <span style="color:darkgray
