WFP to Spend $2.8 Mln on NK Food Aid

The U.N. World Food Program (WFP) has decided to spend nearly two-point-eight million U.S. dollars on food aid for North Korea.

The funding for the aid was provided by the Swedish government.

Radio Free Asia quoted WFP global media coordinator Greg Barrow as saying that his agency will use the Swedish donation to help North Korea, which is in desperate need of emergency food aid.

Barrow said that the North will require even more donations from countries around the world, given that the current amount of food aid for the impoverished nation is expected to run out by September.
