The article doesn't directly reference "bankruptcy," instead calling it a "fiscal crisis". As not all fiscal crises approach bankruptcy, I would suggest adding that term to the article to underline the seriousness of the situation. Beyond that, I've checked the source + Earwig and all is good. For the moment, . Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 03:22, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
