La Comissió desemborsa les ajudes a #Grecia, #Polanda, #Lituània i #Bulgaria després de desastres naturals
Four member states hit by natural disasters in 2017 – Greece, Poland, Lithuania and Bulgaria – will shortly receive a total amount of €34 million of aid from the Fons de Solidaritat de la UE (EUSF), following approval of the Proposta de la Comissió by Parliament and Council.
Regional Policy Commissioner Corina Creţu (a la foto) said: "We had promised not to leave our member states alone. We promised that we would help them bounce back. Today we are concretely delivering on our promises. Within a few weeks, EU assistance will reach these countries and help cover the costs of the damages caused by natural disasters in Bulgaria, Greece, Lithuania and Poland."
The amount of €34m is divided as follows: €2.5m for the Greek island of Kos after the July 2017 earthquake, €12.2m for Poland after the August 2017 storms and rainfalls, almost €17m for Lithuania following the 2017 rainfall and floods and €2.2m for Bulgaria after the storms and floods of October 2017. Money from the EU Solidarity Fund will be used to support reconstruction efforts and cover some of the costs of emergency services, temporary accommodation, clean-up operations and the protection of cultural heritage, to relieve the financial burden borne by national authorities in the wake of natural disasters.
Since the EUSF was set up in 2002, after more than 80 disasters — including floods, forest fires, earthquakes, storms and drought — 24 countries have received EUSF aid totaling more than €5 billion for emergency and recovery operations.
