definition of "desendeudamiento"

In an article in ABC, French President Sarkozy, is reported to have said that France had entered into a "«nueva fase económica de desendeudamiento, que solo podrá solventarse con más trabajo y más rigor». I cannot find a definition of "desendeudameinto". I would appreciate any enlightenment.
Gracias por su ayuda,
Jim

get out of debt(s)

Joyce:
I guess in English would be de-debt or undebt

Chileno, I wonder if, in English, better language might be 'debt retirement' or 'debt reduction'. My dictionary defines the verb 'desendeudar' to mean:to pay one's debts/get out of the red. - Moe, Dec 1, 2011
all of those are correct. You just said it "get out of debt" right? - chileno, Dec 2, 2011
Oh you mean "de-debt"? I was playing... I don't think such a word exists, although a possible correct word, nobody uses it. :) - chileno, Dec 2, 2011

I love Spanish words that take a whole phrase to explain in English.
Thanks for this one.
