Moldova will Receive over $18 Million in Additional U.S. Funding to Help Ukrainian Refugees and Host Communities
The U.S. Embassy in Chisinau reported this, noting that this week, during a visit to Kiev, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced nearly $290 million in new humanitarian aid to the region to support resilience to Russia's aggression against Ukraine. As noted, the United States "appreciates the generosity of the people of Moldova to the people of Ukraine during this difficult time" - more than 1 million Ukrainian refugees have entered Moldova, and about 125,000 of them continue to live in the country. Since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the United States has provided over $156 million in aid to Ukrainian refugees and their host communities in Moldova. "We are proud to work closely with Moldova on this important matter," the U.S. Embassy in Moldova said. //13.09.2024 — InfoMarket.
