Oil-Rich Nations Fall Far Short in Haiti Donations - International News News of the World Middle East News Europe News - FOXNews.com
What do Alyssa Milano, Sandra Bullock, Lance Armstrong, Gisele Bundchen, the country of Senegal and — very possibly — you have in common?
All — including you — have donated more funds to the Haitian relief effort than oil-rich nations like Saudi Arabia and Iran.
Top economies like Japan and China, meanwhile, have donated $5.3 million and $4.4 million, respectively, or roughly 1 percent of the nearly $400 million donated. Germany, according to U.N. documents, has donated more than $6 million, easily surpassing donations from the Russian Federation, which provided $700,000 and one cargo aircraft with two helicopters.
