To be honest I never understood that responsibility argument. In my worldview, countries have to take responsibility for the externalities they produce. Meaning for example environment destruction is an issue that needs global attention.
But citizens of countries are adults and have to live with the consequences of their dealing. When a country is poor it is not the responsibility of other country to feed it but of the people to change their government.

Not by berating their parents for not taking 'responsibility' and allowing a tyrannical warlord to slaughter said parents for being from a different tribe of some sort or another.
