Haiti has only received 15% of committed aid, according to report co-operating.
Leon, 8 sep .- Months after the earthquake that devastated Haiti, the country has received only fifteen per cent of aid pledged, due to the poor performance of international powers, as has been reported today in Leon Veterinarians Without Borders aid worker Fernando Leon.
Leon, that details today at a conference in the capital of Len their experience in this Caribbean country before and after the earthquake,, sto credits, on the occasion of International Day Cooperating explained to that the performance of the powers was "ominous", mainly because established four blocks (USA, Canada, EU and a quarter of Brazil and Venezuela) for this mission that looked more for their own interests than those of Haiti.
The action was, in his opinion, so bad that, three months, buy fallen earth chips, after the catastrophe, the only rations of food to reach the population was rice, food that does not make proteins and that, having been imported from the United States, sank the price of this product in the local market to forty percent.
This attitude of helping, but as the interests of the country with bidder, was the occurrence of situations that hindered, cheap darkfall gold, the arrival of necessary goods at the time, as was the "occupation" of the airport of Puerto Principe by the United States.
