The Boeing 737-400 operated by Air Nauru was the island's only regular link with the outside world, and was surrendered to a trustee for the Export-Import Bank of the United States.

Nauru, a 21-square-kilometre Pacific island with 7,500 residents, was once per capita one of the wealthiest nations on earth, courtesy of seabirds whose droppings were mined and exported throughout the world as fertiliser.

They ran out of shit and can't pay their bills.

Nauru is currently involved in an Australian lawsuit against the United States over a failed underground agreement. Allegedly, representatives of the United States offered billions of dollars worth of economic recovery to the island. In exchange, Nauru enacted legislation limiting the efficacy of overseas money laundering and tax evasion. Simultaneously, they established a Nauruan "stooge" embassy in China (actually functioning under United States control), assisting defecting North Korean scientists and officials across the border. This supposedly included Kyong Won-ha, the scientist allegedly responsible for much of Pyongyang's nuclear program. This initiative was termed "Operation Weasel." When news of this agreement surfaced after Nauru faithfully followed through with the necessary legislation and the preliminaries of the embassy (which rightfully drew suspicion from China as it was staffed entirely by westerners), the United States responded that the agents who made the deal with Nauru never had the authority to make such a contract, and Nauru has not yet received the promised aid. Nauru's case against the United States is still pending, but preliminary judgments favor the island nation over the superpower.

Things that make you go hmm.

After three years of not making payments, this hardly comes as a surprise.
