Government advances loans to other governments and economic entities. These economic entities who take loans are debtors (assets) for the government. So, such loans are recorded on the assets side of the balance sheet of government. At the time of recovering the loan, than the balance of loan that has been recorded on the assets side is reduced. So, we say recovery of loans reduces government's assets.

But on the other hand, the fall in the balance of debtors (loan) leads to simultaneous rise in the cash flows to the government (as loans are getting converted into cash**). Thus, in literal sense, we can say that recovery of loans reduces assets but in actual accounting sense, it is not affecting the net value of assets.
