Economic considerations colour every aspect of international dealings, and nations are just like individuals in that the lender sets the terms of its dealings with the borrower. That is why a nation that owes money to another nation cannot be world leader.
The reasoning in the passage assumes which one of the following?
(A) A nation that does not lend to any other nation cannot be a world leader.
(B) A nation that can set the terms of its dealings with other nations is certain to be a world leader.
(C) A nation that has the terms of its dealings with another action set by that nation cannot be a world leader.
(D) A nation that is a world leader can borrow from another nation as long as that other nation does not set the terms of the dealings between the two nations.
(E) A nation that has no dealings with any other nation cannot be world leader.

OA is C

Actually I am not good at CR, but I got it correct.
It is C.

The argument says, as long as a nation holds a "borrower" status, it can not be the world leader.
C says, if the actions of Nation A are set by the other nation which means A is a borrower and the other nation is a lender, Nation A can not be a world leader. This is excatly what is assumed

A-->it is not assumed.We talk about the ones that lends or borrow here.
B-->certain is strong
C-->correct.
D-->we never know whether a world leader nation can borrow or not.
E-->"no dealings"is again strong
