Less money for German development aid? | DW News |

Over the next five years, the German armed forces are set to receive an additional €100 billion in "special asset" funding -- separate from the budget -- allowing the federal government to sidestep the budgetary matching rule.

That concerns Welthungerhilfe's Mathias Mogge. If the German budget for development aid shrinks, then important and necessary measures in both humanitarian aid and longer-term development cooperation can no longer be implemented.

Joe and Jens urge NATO partners to share burden of new ploughs in European garden at 2% GDP minimum ... Pentagon sales for MAGA super charged.

In 2021, the Netherlands was the 9th-largest donor country in 2021, spending US$5.3 billion on ODA. This corresponds to 0.5% of its GNI, cutting back from 0.83% a decade earlier and the original agreement of EU states to reach 1% goal supporting developing countries. Pre Rutte and VVD era of a liberal and progressive mindset in Dutch politics. Building higher walls at our border (Borrellian fascism) ... the British conservatives and New Europe's populist policy to tackle aliens at our frontier.
