Смотрелкин, ну на фиг мне какие-то иносми.ру к тому же недельний давности. У нас BBC каждый день показывают. По-моему вот это более красноречиво: In the wake of the devastation wrought to the Gulf Coast of the United States by hurricane Katrina, offers of assistance are flowing in from around the world. More than one-hundred countries and international organizations have offered to help the U.S. recover from one of the worst natural disasters in American history. The European Union said it's member states were offering blankets, fifteen water trucks, fifty-thousand first-aid kits, and other assistance. Italy has already delivered tents, cots, blankets and a crisis response team. Canada said it was sending three dozen divers and experts to restart the electric grids.
Twenty-six member countries of the International Energy Agency agreed to make available two million barrels of additional crude oil and gasoline products per day to help alleviate market pressure. Greece has provided ships for housing displaced people. Germany has provided high-speed water pumps. Mexico, Japan, and Britain have sent emergency supplies. NATO's Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Center has played an important role in soliciting and coordinating assistance.
Kuwait pledged four-hundred-million dollars in oil and gasoline and one-hundred-million dollars in cash and other assistance. Qatar and the United Arab Emirates have each pledged one hundred million dollars. India is donating five million dollars plus emergency supplies. Bangladesh and Pakistan have promised a million dollars and Afghanistan one-hundred thousand dollars. Sri Lanka, still struggling with the aftermath of the December 2004 tsunami, has said it will donate twenty-five thousand dollars.
