Question

What did Juarez want to prolong paying off national debt?

Answer 1

Juarez wanted to prolong paying off the national debt because he saw it as an opening to seize Mexico.

 

The War of the Reform in Mexico, during the Second Federal Republic of Mexico, was the three-year civil war (1857 - 1860) between liberals, who had taken power in 1855 under the Plan of Ayutla, and conservatives resisting the legitimacy of the government and its radical restructuring of Mexican laws, known as La Reforma.
