Did the U.S. ever get any of the 60 billion back that we loaned Iraq in the 80's?

The United States Government stated that we could not afford Iraq to loose the war to Iran (1980-1988). So we sold them 117 hellicopters (200 million) and we offered intelligance, weapons, and we even got involved in fighting in the end. But what happened to the 60 billion we loaned them though out the 80's that went to funding Iraqi troops and partly towards making chemical weapons (which it's reported that the blue prints for making such weapons was aquired partly from the U.S.) and eventually i'm sure put towards invading Kuwait. Is all that money gone? Have they repaid us a dime?
