"Development Aid Ministry spokesperson Sebastian Lesch says Berlin has decided to release euro100 million ($145 million) of the euro200 million ($290 million) that it originally pledged for 2011," the news service writes. Lesch "said Monday that Berlin wants to ensure that aid can be released but used in a 'corruption-free' way" by stipulating the money is to be used only in countries where international organizations, such as the U.N. Development Program, are responsible for delivering Global Fund donations (7/4). Back to other news for July 2011
