    Default Hi, teacher, could you tell me what does it mean?

    Teacher, I read a news on BBC website and can not well understand this sentence, could you tell me the real meaning of this:
    Mr Wolfowitz did however say that he agreed with Mr Benn that the Bank had in the past been too full of prescriptions for what countries ought to do and too inclined to force them to do them.

    Thanks!
    Ian

    The bank was giving to many instructions to countries and forcing them to follow them.
