Because two governments ago the corrupt PRO party took 50 billion in loans from the IMF and many more billions from private lenders. They took the ratio of debt-to-GDP from 29.8% of the GDP to 68.1% of GDP. All while simultaneously killing the manufacturing industry and leaving the economy in recession. By the time their term was over and the new government took office (Dec 2019) COVID hit.
