Kristalina Georgieva, European Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection, said: "Last year, the Commission allocated a total of €13 million to Sri Lanka. With this Decision, Europe is following through on its commitment to assist Sri Lanka people. Although improvements have been made in many areas, urgent needs remain and have to be addressed through adequate access for international aid the new funding will provide assistance in the areas of shelter, food assistance, water and sanitation, as well as the financing of de-mining programmes.

It is their money - so they can give it to anyone they want. If we don't want, we should say no.

Instead of GSP plus?. However, who can give a guarantee that ministers & relevant official would not "Rob?." This culture cannot change specially under the present regime. It has become a part & parcel from top to the bottom.
