Following a plea from United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres for immediate funding to protect Afghan children and other vulnerable people from starvation $1 billion in aid for Afghanistan has been pledged.
The U.S. State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) announced the country would direct $64 million to Afghanistan.
That is just a mere 6% being given by the country which plunged Afghanistan into two decades of war.
