US embassy cable - 05ATHENS776

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

On March 18, Dimitris Platis, Director of the Office of 
Deputy Foreign Minister Stylianidis (in charge of foreign 
economic assistance), informed us that from 2000-2004, the 
GoG has allocated 476,000 USD to Greek NGOs and Andean 
Community NGOs for humanitarian assistance as well as 
programs in education, social services, and counternarcotics. 
Of this total, 426,000 USD were disbursed to Peru for 
counternarcotics programs.  50,000 USD were allotted to 
Columbia and Venezuela for social welfare programs, the 
strengthening of civil society and emergency response 
training in coping with natural disasters, such as 
earthquakes.
