Drago doctrine

Read a random definition: fine non capiendo pro pulchre placitando

A quick definition of Drago doctrine:

Drago Doctrine: The Drago Doctrine is a rule that says no country should use force or take over another country's land to collect money that is owed to them. This rule was made by Luis Drago, who was a leader in Argentina, in 1902. He made this rule because he thought it was wrong for powerful countries to use force to get money from weaker countries. The Drago Doctrine was later changed a little bit and became a rule that many countries agreed to follow.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: The Drago Doctrine is a principle that states that no public debt should be collected from a sovereign state by force or through the occupation of American territory by a foreign power. It was asserted by Luis Drago, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Argentine Republic, in a letter to the Argentine Minister in Washington in 1902.

For example, when Great Britain and others used forcible coercion to collect unpaid loans from Venezuela, Luis Drago argued that this was not acceptable. He believed that a foreign power should not be allowed to occupy American territory to collect a debt from a sovereign state. This principle was later modified and adopted at the Hague Conference of 1907.

Definition: Drain refers to the act of drawing a liquid off gradually or the act of gradually exhausting something. It can also refer to a conduit for draining liquid, such as a ditch or a pipe.

For example, a farmer may drain water from their property by using a pipe or ditch to gradually draw the water off. Similarly, a facility may drain the area's natural resources by gradually exhausting them over time. In both cases, the liquid or resources are being removed gradually and over a period of time.

@syddak: Oof tough spot. Congrats on the As. Did either indicate either via email/mail that they would be following up with aid, and if so, did they provide a time frame? It may be acceptable to email them and indicate seat deposits are fast approaching and you are curious if you can expect further info (aid) from the school to aid u in ur decision..
