Answer:

The Articles of Confederation could not solve this problem is explained below in details.

Step-by-step explanation:

No the Articles of Confederation declared that the national government couldn't require the states/previous settlements for taxes/ money. The Articles of Confederation did not organize a tax base of the Territories, the only other means that the Government could meet any kind of liability, such as foreign lending of capital from the French, was by requiring the states for funds, which certainly happened from time to time
