抄録

The World Bank, U.S.A. and U.K. decided, in December 1955, to provide Egypt with funds for then planned High Aswan Dam by loan and grant. The U.S.A. however cancelled the once pledged aid in July 1956. The U.K. and the World Bank also cancelled their financial assistance. In the same month, as a revenge, the Govermment of Egypt nationalized the Suez Company which was then owned by U.K. and France. This induced the Suez Crisis in October 1956. The major reason of U.S.A.'s withdrawal was Egypt's having closer ties with U.S.S.R. and Eastern European countries. Additional reasons are: opposition in the U.S. Congress by those elected in the southern states, Eisenhower administration's willingness to avoid competition with U.S.S.R. in terms and conditions of foreign aid, protests shown by allied developing nations, Egypt's disagreement to the terms and conditions of the proposed aid, and lack of agreement with Sudan . The same incident, an international crisis, is unlikely to be caused in these days, for (i) there now exists various mechanisms to meet requirements of developing nations, and (ii) recipient countries have understandings about conditions attached to financial aid by donor countries and organizations.
