After Germany’s defeat in World War II, payment of the reparations was not resumed. There was, however, outstanding German debt that the Weimar Republic had used to pay the reparations. An international conference decided (Agreement on German External Debts, 1953) that Germany would pay some parts of the remaining debt only after the country was reunified. West Germany paid off the remainder by 1980. In 1995, after reunification, the new German government announced it would resume payments of the interest.[citation needed] Germany will finish paying off the Americans in 2010[47] and the rest in 2020.[48] According to newspaper reports, the last payment of € 69,950.000 will be made on 3 October 2010, the 20th anniversary of German reunification.[49]
