The EU has announced that it will provide financial assistance to neighboring countries, which are insufficient to combat the corona virus from countries geographically close to the EU, especially Africa. The explanation came from the EU External Action Service. The statement used the following statements:
* The EU will help the most vulnerable countries in Africa, the Western Balkans around the EU, Eastern Partnership countries, the Middle East and North Africa, Asia and the Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean.
Aid will also focus on those most at risk, including children, women, the elderly and the disabled, immigrants, refugees, internally displaced persons and host communities.
STEP FOR ‘SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC RESULTS’
It was also noted that the aim of the EU’s support was to respond to the emergency health crisis and the humanitarian needs that resulted from it. The following statements were included in the following statement:
* This focuses on supporting the response plans of the World Health Organization and the United Nations (UN) and providing humanitarian support in the affected countries, strengthening health, water and sanitation systems, as well as the capacity and preparation of partner countries to deal with the epidemic, focusing on small and medium enterprises. It aims to reduce immediate social and economic consequences, including government reforms, to support the industry and reduce poverty.
It is stated that the EU will encourage a joint, coordinated, multilateral intervention with the United Nations, international financial institutions, G7 and G20.
It has been reported that the EU will direct its aid with a special team called “European Team” and a slice of 20 billion Euros will be used in this context. (IHA)
