<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->ISLAMABAD : <b>Pakistan’s external debt and liabilities (EDL) mounted to $52.83 billion by the end of June 2009, which is equivalent to about one-third of the country’s economy.

During the last one year, about $6.67 billion were added to external debt and liabilities. Last year at the end of June, these stood at $46.16 billion.</b> Rupee depreciation against major currencies, especially the US dollar, was another factor contributing to the debt burden.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
