Why did France demand that Germany repay their debts in foreign currency?
If a country is permitted to repay its debts in its own currency, they can simply print significant amounts of currency, leading to massive inflation in the short term, to satisfy the numerical quantity of the debt, but not pay it in real terms.Imagine it this way. France tells Germany that it must pay France 5 million Deutschmarks, which is worth 10 million Francs. Germany goes and simply prints out 5 million new Deutschmarks. Now, since there are so many new Deutschmarks, the value of those new Deutschmarks is now 3 million Francs. So, when France receives the money, it receives far less than expected. Conversely, since Germany cannot print more Francs, if payment is requested in Francs, it needs to actually provide currency or material which would be equivalent to 10 million Francs.
